'Brothers' in the Bible

Now it is my purpose to make clear to you, brothers, that the cause of the good news has been helped by my experiences;

And most of the brothers in the Lord, taking heart because of my chains, are all the stronger to give the word of God without fear.

For the rest, my brothers, be glad in the Lord. Writing the same things to you is no trouble to me, and for you it is safe.

Brothers, it is clear to me that I have not come to that knowledge; but one thing I do, letting go those things which are past, and stretching out to the things which are before,

Brothers, take me as your example, and take note of those who are walking after the example we have given.

So my brothers, well loved and very dear to me, my joy and crown, be strong in the Lord, my loved ones.

For the rest, my brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things have honour, whatever things are upright, whatever things are holy, whatever things are beautiful, whatever things are of value, if there is any virtue and if there is any praise, give thought to these things.

Give words of love to every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me send you their love.
