That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;
Do good - like God Himself (Psalms 119:68; Acts 14:17) and Christ (Acts 10:38). Tittmann translates х agathoergein (G14)]: to do well; as to be beneficent is a distinct word [agathopoiein].
Rich in good works - so "rich in faith," which produces them (James 2:5). Contrasted with "rich in this world" (1 Timothy 6:17) - literally, 'rich in honourable works.' [Greek, kalois (G2570) ergois (G2041), are works right in themselves: agathois, good to another.]
Ready to distribute - `liberal in distributing:' the heart not cleaving to possesions.
Willing to communicate - to impart a share of goods to others (Galatians 6:6; Hebrews 13:16).
