That you may be able.] All is Propter vos, for your sakes: this preaching, this remembering, this writing, all propter vos, for you. 1 Cor. 3, 22. Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, all are yours. You may say to your Ministers, as the Poet of Oxen; Sic vos non vobis, fertis aratra boves; They labour in the plough, not for themselves, but for your souls. 1 Thess. 1.5.

He had burnt a hole in his bellows, gotten the consumption of the Lungs, exhausted his spirits; and all for the people. Phil. 1.24. Nevertheless, though it were better for me to be dissolved; yet to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.
