Fear has Many Eyes. Fear Hath Punishment
Cambridge Bible for Schools
1 John 4:18
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear has torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love.


(R.V.): — This is true in two ways —

(1)  Fear involves the idea of punishment;

(2)  fear is a foretaste of punishment.
