Col. 3:23• 23Whatsoever ye do, labour at it heartily, as doing it to the Lord, and not to men; (Col. 3:23)
• The word of Christ may dwell in them richly. This is the development, according to the perfection of God, of the new man, and the wisdom of God to form and direct him. (“Colossians 3” by J.N. Darby)
• It is not Christ Himself, as in Eph. 3, the wondrous issue even now in us by the power of the Spirit; but, at least, in His word is found (what the Colossians needed) an active and most pure spring of instruction and counsel, and mutuality of help by it. Such is the fruit of His word thus dwelling in us. (“Colossians 3” by W. Kelly)
• It matters little how well taught the saint may be, nor how he may know the moral beauty and the unfailing wisdom of the word, if positive fruit be not increased: if the spirit and power of worship abound not, there is something altogether short, or wrong. (“Colossians 3” by W. Kelly)

(“The Believer's Identification With the Death and Resurrection of Christ: Colossians 3:1-11” by B. Anstey)
• “Psalms” are not, as some think, the Old Testament Psalms. These are compositions based on Christian experiences which the saints have passed through in walking with the Lord. (“The Believer's Identification With the Death and Resurrection of Christ: Colossians 3:1-11” by B. Anstey)
• “Hymns” are compositions that express worship and address God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ directly. These may take the form of prayers. (“The Believer's Identification With the Death and Resurrection of Christ: Colossians 3:1-11” by B. Anstey)
• “Spiritual songs” are compositions that contain spiritual truths in accord with the Christian revelation by which we are instructed and exhorted in the Christian pathway. (“The Believer's Identification With the Death and Resurrection of Christ: Colossians 3:1-11” by B. Anstey)

JND Translation Notes

h
It is a question of spiritual understanding whether "in all wisdom" relates to "dwell" or to "teaching." It may be the former. Paul taught in all wisdom (ch. 1.28), and in them the word was so to dwell.
i
"In psalms," etc., may be connected with "singing" rather than with what precedes. but in Eph. 5.19, "speaking" is connected with "psalms."
