- From the Geneva Notes.
- 'The love of our neighbour depends on the love with which we love God, that this last must go before the first: of which it follows, that that is not to be called love, when men agree together to do evil, neither that, when as in loving our neighbours, we do not respect God's commandments.'
- From Matthew Henry's Commentary. (c. 1700)
- 'True love for the people of God, may be distinguished from natural kindness or party attachments, by its being united with the love of God, and obedience to his commands.'
- From Wesley's Notes. John Wesley (1703-1791).
- 'The seventh verse 1Jo 5:7 (usually so reckoned) is a brief recapitulation of all which has been before advanced concerning the Father, the Son, and the Spirit. It is cited, in conjunction with the sixth and eighth, 1Jo 5:6,8 by Tertullian, Cyprian, and an uninterrupted train of Fathers. And, indeed, what the sun is in the world, what the heart is in a man, what the needle is in the mariner's compass, this verse is in the epistle.'
- From the Commentary on the Whole Bible (Jamieson, Fausset and Brown, 1871).
- 'He could not be our 'Jesus' (God-Saviour) unless He were 'the Christ'; for He could not reveal the way of salvation, except He were a prophet: He could not work out that salvation, except He were a priest: He could not confer that salvation upon us, except He were a king: He could not be prophet, priest, and king, except He were the Christ [PEARSON, Exposition of the Creed].'
- From The People's New Testament, B.W. Johnson, 1891
- 'The water and the blood refer primarily to the baptism that revealed him at the beginning of his earthly ministry and the blood which he shed at its close.'

Approximately 200 subjects, between the ages of ≥ 6 months to < 6 years of age who have a history of AR will participate in this study.
The study will be conducted at about 20 research centers in the United States. Each research center will enroll approximately 2 to 10 subjects.
The study will involve at least 4 office visits over at least a 4-week period. You will need to keep the appointments as scheduled by the study personnel.
Some medications or therapies could interfere with the safety evaluations conducted in this study. If your child is currently taking any of these medications or therapies, they will need to discontinue them in order to be eligible for this study. Your study doctor will discuss this with you along with information on how this could affect your child's health. If you and the study doctor decide this is appropriate, there is a specific time period that these will need to be discontinued before your child can proceed in study evaluation.
If your child is eligible for study participation, he/she will be randomly assigned (by chance, like the flip of a coin) to one of the following two study drug groups:
- Astepro (azelastine hydrochloride) 0.15% Nasal Spray, 822 mcg (total daily dose); OR
- Astepro (azelastine hydrochloride) 0.1% Nasal Spray, 548 mcg (total daily dose)
The following are being performed for the purposes of this study and are not considered standard care:
Studies 1 6 15 Day
- Your child will be placed in one of the two study drug groups by chance.
- You will complete questionnaires about your child's allergy symptoms.
- You will complete diary cards each morning recording your child's allergy symptoms over the previous 24 hours.
- Your child will have his/her vital signs measured (blood pressure, pulse, temperature and breathing rate).
- You and your child will be asked questions regarding your child's use of any medication or supplements and how your child has felt since his/her last visit.
- Blood and urine samples will be collected to assess the safety of taking the study drug.
