SEV Biblia, Chapter 6:2
Sobrellevad los unos las cargas de los otros; y cumplid así la ley del Cristo.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Galatians 6:2
Verse 2. Bear ye one another's burdens] Have sympathy; feel for each other; and consider the case of a distressed brother as your own. And so fulfill the law of Christ.] That law or commandment, Ye shall love one another; or that, Do unto all men as ye would they should do unto you. We should be as indulgent to the infirmities of others, as we can be consistently with truth and righteousness: our brother's infirmity may be his burden; and if we do not choose to help him to bear it, let us not reproach him because he is obliged to carry the load.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 2. Bear ye one another's burdens , etc..] Which may be understood either of sins, which are heavy burdens to sensible sinners, to all that are partakers of the grace of God; Christ is only able to bear these burdens, so as to remove them and take them away, which he has done by his blood, sacrifice, and satisfaction; saints bear one another's, not by making satisfaction for them, which they are not able to do, nor by conniving at them, and suffering them upon them, which they should not do, but by gently reproving them, by comforting them when overpressed with guilt, by sympathizing with them in their sorrow, by praying to God for to manifest his pardoning grace to them, and by forgiving them themselves, so far as they are faults committed against them: or else the frailties and infirmities of weak saints, which are troublesome, and apt to make uneasy, are meant; and which are to be bore by the strong, by making themselves easy with them, and by accommodating themselves to their weakness, and by abridging themselves of some liberties, which otherwise might be lawfully taken by them; or afflictions may be designed, which are grievous to the flesh, and are bore by others, when they administer help and relief under them, whether in a temporal or spiritual way; and when they condole them, and sympathize with them, bear a part with them, and make others' griefs and sorrows their own: and so fulfil the law of Christ ; which is the law of love to one another, ( John 13:34,35) in opposition to the law of Moses, the judaizing Galatians were so fond of, and by which Christ's disciples may be distinguished from those of Moses, or any others. This is a law or doctrine which Christ has clearly taught, and recovered from the false glosses of the Pharisees; it is his new commandment, which he has strengthened and enforced by his own example in dying for his people, and which he, by his Spirit, inscribes upon their hearts. The Jews speak of the law of the Messiah as preferable to any other. The law (they say f118 ) which a man learns in this world is vanity, in comparison of jym l wtrwt the law of the Messiah, or Christ; by fulfilling, it is meant, doing it, acting in obedience to it, and not a perfect fulfilling it, which cannot be done by sinful creatures.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-5 - We are to bear one another's burdens. So we shall fulfil the law of Christ. This obliges to mutual forbearance and compassion towards eac other, agreeably to his example. It becomes us to bear one another' burdens, as fellow-travellers. It is very common for a man to look upo himself as wiser and better than other men, and as fit to dictate to them. Such a one deceives himself; by pretending to what he has not, he puts a cheat upon himself, and sooner or later will find the sad effects. This will never gain esteem, either with God or men. Every on is advised to prove his own work. The better we know our own hearts an ways, the less shall we despise others, and the more be disposed to help them under infirmities and afflictions. How light soever men' sins seem to them when committed, yet they will be found a heav burden, when they come to reckon with God about them. No man can pay ransom for his brother; and sin is a burden to the soul. It is spiritual burden; and the less a man feels it to be such, the mor cause has he to suspect himself. Most men are dead in their sins, an therefore have no sight or sense of the spiritual burden of sin Feeling the weight and burden of our sins, we must seek to be ease thereof by the Saviour, and be warned against every sin.

Vincent's NT Word Studies
2. One another's burdens (allhlwn ta barh). The emphasis is on one another's, in contrast with the selfishness which leaves others to take care of themselves. The primary reference in burdens is to moral infirmities and errors, and the sorrow and shame and remorse which they awaken in the offender.
So (outwv). By observing this injunction.
Fulfill (anaplhrwsate). The verb denotes, not the filling up of a perfect vacancy, as the simple plhroun, but the supplying of what is lacking to fulness; the filling up of a partial void. Comp. 1 Cor. xvi. 17; Philip. ii. 30; 1 Thess. ii. 16. 87
