Walk According To Your Calling: In Love Rom 12:10…In honor preferring one another JFB, …The word rendered “prefer” means rather “to go before,” “take the lead,” that is, “show an example.” VWS, The verb occurs only here. It means to go before as a guide. Honor is the honor due from each to all. Compare Phil 2:3; 1 Pet 2:17; 1 Pet 5:5. Hence, leading the way in showing the honor that is due. Others render anticipating and excelling.

Walk According To Your Calling: In Love Rom 12:10 ISV, Be devoted to each other with mutual affection. Excel at showing respect for each other. ASV, In love of the brethren be tenderly affectioned one to another; in honor preferring one another; ESV, Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor. JFB, In brotherly love be affectionate one to another; in [giving, or showing] honor, outdoing each other. Verse 10 reads awkward in the KJV for our language (and maybe his). Commentators agree there are more appropriate words for us to use to properly understand what Paul is saying.
