Ver. 14. ἐπὶ πᾶσι δὲ τούτοις τὴν ἀγάπην : probably “ over all these,” carry- ing on the metaphor of clothing, not ‘in additiontoall”. These virtues are mani- festations of love, but may be conceivably exhibited where love is,absent, so that the mention of it is not superfluous.—8 ἐστιν: probably “that is,” thoug…
