Ver. 11. For this is the message,.... Sent from God by Christ, or what
he in his ministry declared, and is the commandment which was so
frequently urged by him, Joh 13:34;

that ye have heard from the beginning; of the preaching of the Gospel to
them, and of their conversion; see 1Jo 2:7;

that we should love one another; to which the command of Christ, the
reason with which it is enforced, and the early notice of it, should
engage.
