 1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.

 2 Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

 3 For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.

 4 But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.

 5 For every man shall bear his own burden.

 6 Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things.

 7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

 8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

 9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

 10 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all *men*, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.

 11 Ye see how large a letter I have written unto you with mine own hand.

 12 As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.

 13 For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.

 14 But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.

 15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.

 16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace *be* on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.

 17 From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.

 18 Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ *be* with your spirit. Amen.

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. **** 

Ver. 1. **If a man be overtaken** ] Gr. προληφθη , be taken before he is aware, before he hath time to consider, or bethink himself of better. It is of incogitancy that the saints sin; put them in mind, and they mend all. It is of passion, and passions last not long. "There is no way of wickedness in them; they stand not in the way of sinners, they sit not down in the seat of scorners," [Psalms 1:1](/kjv/psalms/1/1) ; [Psalms 139:24](/kjv/psalms/139/24) . 

**Restore such a one** ] Gr. καταρτοζετε , set him in joint again. A metaphor from surgeons and bone setters who handle their patients tenderly. Or from such as take a mote out of one’s eye gently and warily. 

**Lest thou also be tempted** ] I have known a good old man, saith Bernard, who when he had heard of any that had committed some notorious offence, was wont to say with himself, *Ille hodie, et ego eras,* He fell today, so may I tomorrow. Mr Bradford set down in his diary what good he saw in any man, bewailing the lack of it in himself, and praying for more grace; as if he saw or heard of any evil in another, he noted it, as in danger to do so himself; and still added, Lord, have mercy upon me. (Prof. to his Serm. of Rep.)
