Scofield Reference Notes (1917 Edition) (1 verse expositions)
“The elder unto the elect lady and her children, whom I love in the truth; and not I only, but also all they that have known the truth;”
This is no proper name, but to be taken as the word soundeth, that is to say to the worthy and noble Lady. Excellent and honorable Dame. The bond of Christian conjunction or linking together, is the true and constant profession of the truth.
