{A faithful work} (piston). Either thus or "thou makest
sure," after an example in Xenophon quoted by Wettstein (poiein
pista) and parallel to kaina poie(935c) in  Re 21:5 . But it is not
certain. {In whatsoever thou doest} (ho ean ergas(8869)).
Indefinite relative with modal ean (=an) and the first aorist
middle subjunctive of ergazomai. See  Col 3:23  for both
poie(935c) and ergazomai in the same sentence. {And strangers
withal} (kai touto xenous). "And that too" (accusative of
general reference as in  1Co 6:6  Php 1:28  Eph 2:8 ). This
praise of hospitality ( Ro 12:13  1Pe 4:9  1Ti 3:2  5:10  Tit
1:8  Heb 13:2 ) shows that in  2Jo 1:10  John has a peculiar case
in mind.
