Vincent's Word Studies in the NT

Galatians 6:2

One another's burdens [α λ λ η λ ω ν τ α β α ρ η]. The emphasis is on one another's, in contrast with the selfishness which leaves others to take care of themselves. The primary reference in burdens is to moral infirmities and errors, and the sorrow and shame and remorse which they awaken in the offender.

So [ο υ τ ω ς]. By observing this injunction.

Fulfill [α ν α π λ η ρ ω σ α τ ε]. The verb denotes, not the filling up of a perfect vacancy, as the simple plhroun, but the supplying of what is lacking to fulness; the filling up of a partial void. Comp. 1 Corinthians 16:17; Philippians 2:30; 1 Thessalonians 2:16; 1 Thessalonians 2:8; 1 Thessalonians 2:7
