Contextual Overview

¹⁸ Wives, yield to the authority of your husbands, because this is the right thing to do in the Lord. ¹⁹ Husbands, love your wives and be gentle with them. ²⁰ Children, obey your parents in all things, because this pleases the Lord. ²¹ Fathers, do not nag your children. If you are too hard to please, they may want to stop trying. ²² Slaves, obey your masters in all things. Do not obey just when they are watching you, to gain their favor, but serve them honestly, because you respect the Lord. ²³ In all the work you are doing, work the best you can.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And whatsoever ye do,.... Some have thought that these words, and the two following verses, regard the Colossians in general, and the performance of any, and all good works by them; but by their connection with the preceding verse, and with the beginning of the next chapter, they appear to concern servants only, and what they do under that character, and under the discharge of their duty:
