{That which is just and equal} (	o dikaion kai t(886e)
isot(8874)a). Paul changes from 	o ison (like 	o dikaion, neuter
singular adjective with article for abstract idea) to the
abstract substantive isot(8873), old word, in N.T. only here and
 2Co 8:13f . If employers always did this, there would be no
labour problem. {A Master in heaven} (Kurion en ouran(9369)). A
wholesome reminder to the effect that he keeps his eye on the
conduct of masters of men here towards their employees.
