Colossians 3:23
Douay-Rheims
Whatsoever you do, do it from the heart, as to the Lord, and not to men:
John Chrysostom
He desires to have them freed not only from hypocrisy, but also from slothfulness. He hath made them instead of slaves free, when they need not the superintendence of their master for the expression "heartily" means this, "with good will," not with a slavish necessity, but with freedom, and of choice. And what is the reward?
