Ʋers. 1 ¶The Elder to the beloued Gaius, whome I loue in the trueth.
The Elder to the beloved Gaius. 1We think this Gaius to be some chief man, most Christian, & also very rich, who not only harboured, the Apostles & preachers of the gospel of that time: but also provided them of all other necessaries for their way. Some think this man to be the host of Paul, of whom Paul him self writ unto the Romans: 2Gaius mine host, and the host of the whole Church saluteth you. Not therefore unworthily doth this holy man call him, beloved: because that he was both endued with true faith toward God,3 and also wholly was inflamed with love toward the servants of Christ. It followeth. Whom I love in the truth. He loveth in the truth, which according to God loveth with a hearty and unfeigned love: as we have also often said in our former writings.
