Verse 3
3 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
Ver. 3. Purifieth himself ] That is true hope that runs out into holiness. Faith and hope purge, and work a suitableness in the soul to the things believed and hoped for.
Even as he is pure ] In quality, though not in an equality. There shall be comparatio, though not aequiparatio.
