'Commend' in the Bible

But if our unrighteousness commend God's righteousness, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who inflicts wrath? I speak according to man.

But I commend to you Phoebe, our sister, who is minister of the assembly which is in Cenchrea;

But meat does not commend us to God; neither if we should not eat do we come short; nor if we should eat have we an advantage.

Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or do we need, as some, commendatory letters to you, or commendatory from you?

For we do not again commend ourselves to you, but we are giving to you occasion of boast in our behalf, that ye may have such with those boasting in countenance, and not in heart.

For we dare not class ourselves or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves; but these, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are not intelligent.
