For we have much grace and consolation upon thy love, for the bowels of the holy are refreshed by thee, brother.

Wherefore, though I have, much, freedom of speech, in Christ, to be enjoining upon thee that which is befitting,

I write you in full reliance upon your obedience; I know that you will do even more than I ask.
