1 Peter 1:14 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance: Not fashioning yourselves - As the offices of certain persons are known by the garb or livery they wear, so are transgressors: where we see the world's livery we see the world's servants; they fashion or habit themselves according to their lusts, and we may guess that they have a worldly mind by their conformity to worldly fashions.
