'Brothers' in the Bible

Now I want you to know, brothers, that what has happened to me has actually resulted in the advance of the gospel,

Most of the brothers in the Lord have gained confidence from my imprisonment and dare even more to speak the message fearlessly.

Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. To write to you again about this is no trouble for me and is a protection for you.

Brothers, I do not consider myself to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and reaching forward to what is ahead,

Join in imitating me, brothers, and observe those who live according to the example you have in us.

So then, my brothers, you are dearly loved and longed for—my joy and crown. In this manner stand firm in the Lord, dear friends.

Finally brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable—if there is any moral excellence and if there is any praise—dwell on these things.

Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. Those brothers who are with me greet you.
