Hebrews 13:3. Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them;
Christian people who have got into trouble through being Christian persons who have been shut up in prison for righteousness’ sake; there were many such in Paul’s day. Sympathize with them, says the apostle, "as bound with them."
Hebrews 13:3. And them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.
So that, if you are not now in adversity, you may be before long. Therefore, have a fellow feeling for those who are in trouble. If you are not yourself distressed, you are not out of the reach of such a thing; therefore be tender towards your afflicted brethren.
