Charles Spurgeon Commentary
"And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, and forbear threatening: knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no respect of persons with him." — Ephesians 6:9 (ASV)
Forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with him.
Very beautifully balanced is the whole system of gospel morals.
There is no undue advantage given by the fact of our being rendered equal in Christ, so that the servant is to be less obedient to the master, or the child to the parent.
Neither is there any undue power given to those who are in authority.
But the grace of God teaches all to do unto all as we would that they should do unto us.
