Gill's Notes on the Bible
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, John 13:34;
that ye have heard from the beginning; of the preaching of the Gospel to them, and of their conversion; see 1 John 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.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
For this is the message - Margin, “commandment.” In the received text, this is ἀγγελία angelia - “a message brought;” in several manuscripts, and in later editions, it is ἐπαγγελία epangelia - “annunciation, announcement;” an order given, or a commandment, Acts 23:21. It is not very material which reading is followed. The word “command” or “rule” would express the sense with sufficient clearness. The reference is to the law given by the Saviour as a permanent direction to his disciples.
That ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another - See the John 13:34-35 notes; 1 John 2:7 note.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 11. For this is the message — See 1 John 1:5. From the beginning God hath taught men that they should love one another. How essentially necessary this is to the comfort and well-being of man in this state of trial and difficulty, every sensible man must see. All are dependent upon all; all upon each, and each upon all. Mutual love makes this dependence pleasant and doubly profitable. Nothing can be more pleasing to an ingenuous and generous mind than to communicate acts of kindness.
