Charles Ellicott Commentary 1 Corinthians 16:24

"My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen." — 1 Corinthians 16:24 (ASV)

My love be with you all.—Like a river which, after rushing, foaming over many a rock and through many a gorge, at last emerges into a broad calm amid sunlit meadows, so this Epistle, after chapters of trenchant logic and fervid rebuke, closes in peaceful words of tenderness and love.
