Scholar Albert Barnes observed: “As a runner would be careful not to encumber himself with a garment which would be apt to wind around his legs in running, and hinder him, so it should be with the Christian, who especially ought to lay aside everything which resembles this. ”
Piibliõpetlane Albert Barnes märgib: „Nii nagu jooksja pidi olema hoolas, et ta ei kammitseks end rõivaga, mis oleks võinud jooksu ajal kergesti tema jalgade ümber mähkuda ja teda pidurdada, peaks seda olema ka kristlane, kellel eriti tuleb loobuda kõigest selletaolisest. ”
