Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(14) Put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ.--A continuation of the metaphor introduced in Romans 13:12. So invest and identify yourselves with the spirit of Christ as to reproduce it in your outward walk and conduct.Make not provision for the flesh.--Take no thought for the flesh, so as to supply a stimulus to its lusts. A life of luxury and self-indulgence is apt to excite those fleshly impulses which the Christian should try rather to mortify. He therefore warns his readers not to give their thoughts to such things.Parallel Commentaries ...GreekInstead,ἀλλὰ (alla)ConjunctionStrong's 235: But, except, however.
