1 Corinthians 10:24

     24. (1Co 10:33; 1Co 13:5; Ro 15:1, 2).

1 Corinthians 10:33

     33. I please—I try to please (1Co 9:19, 22; Ro 15:2).

      not seeking mine own— (1Co 10:24).

      many—rather as Greek, "THE many."

1 Corinthians 13:5

     5. not . . . unseemlyis not uncourteous, or inattentive to civility and propriety.

      thinketh no evilimputeth not evil [ALFORD]; literally, "the evil" which actually is there (Pr 10:12; 1Pe 4:8). Love makes allowances for the falls of others, and is ready to put on them a charitable construction. Love, so far from devising evil against another, excuses "the evil" which another inflicts on her [ESTIUS]; doth not meditate upon evil inflicted by another [BENGEL]; and in doubtful cases, takes the more charitable view [GROTIUS].

Philippians 2:4

     4. The oldest manuscripts read, "Not looking each of you (plural, Greek) on his own things (that is, not having regard solely to them), but each of you on the things of others" also. Compare Php 2:21; also Paul's own example (Php 1:24).
