“Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.”
Accept the one whose faith is weak, without quarreling over disputable matters. — Proslambano (receive, take to oneself) the one with weak pistis (faith, conviction) emphasizes community acceptance despite disagreement. Dialogismoi (disputable matters, reasonings, possibly regarding food laws and holy days) should not trigger diakrisis (division, judging). The strong are called to extend welcome despite doctrinal distance.
