• the call to love one another is manifestly grounded on the assurance that they had purified their souls already; which involves the responsibility of continual consistency with this state of purity, and of self-judgment in case of failure.

The most ancient and best MSS. do not read "through the Spirit"; the Latins strangely giving "of love," instead of "the truth" which is certainly right.

b

A few MSS. omit "pure" on feeble basis.
