'Commend' in the Bible

And now I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

I commend to you our sister Phoebe, who is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea;

But food will not commend us to God; we are neither the worse if we do not eat, nor the better if we do eat.

Are we beginning to commend ourselves again? Or do we need, as some, letters of commendation to you or from you?

For we are not bold to class or compare ourselves with some of those who commend themselves; but when they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are without understanding.
