But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.

Study Note
The command to 'love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again' grounds the ethic of enemy-love not in humanitarian idealism but in the character of God: 'for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.' The Greek 'apelpizō' ('hoping for nothing again') is rare and probably means 'without despairing' rather than 'expecting no return,' suggesting the call is to persevering generosity rather than naive charity with no disappointment. Matthew 5:44-48 provides a close parallel, with the additional motivation that tax-collectors and pagans also love those who love them — love that mirrors God must exceed this minimum. The promised reward ('your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest') shows that ethical imitation of God is simultaneously the path to sonship — being and doing are inseparable in Lukan discipleship.
