Exegesis
The passive imperative plērophoreisthō {πληροφορείσθω | plē-ro-pho-reís-thō} ‘let him be fully convinced’ softens the command into an exhortation yet still urges believers to reach settled conviction internally rather than imposing their evaluation of days on others. English word order slightly rearranges the clauses to make the contrast between the two “persons” clear, while preserving the repeated verb and the inclusive summary with “each one.”
