Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 2 Corinthians 1:14
COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD
14. in part —In contrast to "even to the end": the testimony of his life was not yet completed [THEOPHYLACT and BENGEL]. Rather, "in part," that is, some of you, not all [GROTIUS, ALFORD]. So in 2 Corinthians 2:5 ; Romans 11:25 . The majority at Corinth had shown a willing compliance with Paul's directions in the first Epistle: but some were still refractory. Hence arises the difference of tone in different parts of this Epistle. See Romans 11:25- : your rejoicing —your subject of glorying or boast. "Are" (not merely shall be ) implies the present recognition of one another as a subject of mutual glorying: that glorying being about to be realized in its fulness "in the day (of the coming) of the Lord Jesus." return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-15" class="com-number"
