One another - one another [α λ λ η λ ω ν - ε α υ τ ο ι ς]. Lit., one another - yourselves. For a similar variation of the pronoun see Ephesians 4:32; 1 Peter 4:8-10. The latter pronoun emphasizes the fact that they are all members of Christ's body - everyone members one of another - so that, in forgiving each other they forgive themselves. Quarrel [μ ο μ φ η ν]. Only here in the New Testament. Cause of blame. Rev., complaint. The A. V. uses quarrel in its earlier sense of cause of complaint. So Shakespeare :

"The lady Beatrice hath a quarrel to you." " Much Ado, " 2, 1.

"Against whom comest thou, and what's thy quarrel?" " Richard ii, " 1, 3, 33.

Holinshed : "He thought he had a good quarrel to attack him." It was used of a plaintiff's action at law, like the Latin querela.
