'Brethren' in the Bible

But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;

And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.

Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe.

Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample.

Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren which are with me greet you.
