6:
Or, gainsaying.
the apostle directeth as to servants of all sorts, whether bond or free, otherwise than that by covenant they have obliged themselves to men, he willeth they should be obedient to the commands of those who were their legal masters, neither thinking themselves free from them by their Christianity, if their masters were pagans, nor that they had a greater liberty to be saucy with them, or less obedient to them, because they were Christians, and upon that account brethren, 1Ti 6:2.
that is, in civil things, wherein alone they were servants.
not saucily replying when they were reproved, nor contradicting the commands of their masters.
