Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being examples to the flock.
All Commentaries on 1 Peter 5:3 Go To 1 Peter 5
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Neither as domineering over the clergy. This may not only signify over the inferior ministers, who were subject to the bishops or priests, but also over the particular flocks which fell to their share, or to their lot to take care of. See the Greek. (Witham)
