"Do to others as you would have them do to you.” Luke 6:31
Charles
Gibbon is perhaps the first author to explicitly call "Do unto
others" the golden rule. At least 10 additional British authors before
1650 use golden rule to refer to "Do unto others": William Perkins in
1606, Thomas Taylor in 1612 & 1631, Robert Sanderson in 1627, John Mayo in
1630, Thomas Nash in 1633, John Clark in 1634, Simeon Ashe in 1643, John Ball
in 1644, John Vicars in 1646, and Richard Farrar in 1648. (Taken from https://www.harryhiker.com/chronology.htm)
