The Apostle Paul
Philippians 2:4KJV·traditional attribution

Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.

Matthew Henry Presbyterian

The great law of Christ's kingdom is mutual love, and this must show itself in like-mindedness. When we have tasted consolation in Christ, we prove it by loving one another; the sweetness we find in Him should sweeten our spirits toward His people.

Commenting on Philippians 2:1-11

John Gill Reformed Baptist

Do not seek your own honor and applause, or pride yourself in your gifts while neglecting others' superior abilities. Weigh the sentiments of others carefully; if their reasons outweigh yours, yield to them. This is the way to promote truth and love.

Albert Barnes Presbyterian

Be not selfish; your care must extend beyond your own concerns and family to the whole. But do not become a busybody prying into others' secret purposes or obtruding advice where it is not sought. Some things are simply not your business; possess your soul in patience.
