2 Corinthians 1:1
_ _ 2 Corinthians 1:1-24. The heading; Paul’s consolations in recent trials in Asia; His sincerity towards the Corinthians; Explanation of his not having visited them as he had purposed.
_ _ Timothy our brother — When writing to Timothy himself, he calls him “my son” (1 Timothy 1:18). Writing of him, “brother,” and “my beloved son” (1 Corinthians 4:17). He had been sent before to Macedonia, and had met Paul at Philippi, when the apostle passed over from Troas to Macedonia (compare 2 Corinthians 2:12, 2 Corinthians 2:13; see on 1 Corinthians 16:10, 1 Corinthians 16:11).
_ _ in all Achaia — comprising Hellas and the Peloponnese. The Gentiles themselves, and Annaeus Gallio, the proconsul (Acts 18:12-16), strongly testified their disapproval of the accusation brought by the Jews against Paul. Hence, the apostle was enabled to labor in the whole province of Achaia with such success as to establish several churches there (1 Thessalonians 1:8; 2 Thessalonians 1:4), where, writing from Corinth, he speaks of the “churches,” namely, not only the Corinthian, but others also — Athens, Cenchrea, and, perhaps, Sicyon, Argos, etc. He addresses “the Church in Corinth,” directly, and all “the saints” in the province, indirectly. In Galatians 1:2 all the “churches” are addressed directly in the same circular Epistle. Hence, here he does not say, all the churches, but “all the saints.” |
2 Corinthians 1:1-2
_ _ This is the introduction to this epistle, in which we have,
_ _ I. The inscription; and therein, 1. The person from whom it was sent, namely, Paul, who calls himself an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God. The apostleship itself was ordained by Jesus Christ, according to the will of God; and Paul was called to it by Jesus Christ, according to the will of God. He joins Timotheus with himself in writing this epistle; not because he needed his assistance, but that out of the mouth of two witnesses the word might be established; and this dignifying Timothy with the title of brother (either in the common faith, or in the work of the ministry) shows the humility of this great apostle, and his desire to recommend Timothy (though he was then a young man) to the esteem of the Corinthians, and give him a reputation among the churches. 2. The persons to whom this epistle was sent, namely, the church of God at Corinth: and not only to them, but also to all the saints in all Achaia, that is, to all the Christians who lived in the region round about. Note, In Christ Jesus no distinction is made between the inhabitants of city and country; all Achaia stands upon a level in his account.
_ _ II. The salutation or apostolical benediction, which is the same as in his former epistle; and therein the apostle desires the two great and comprehensive blessings, grace and peace, for those Corinthians. These two benefits are fitly joined together, because there is no good and lasting peace without true grace; and both of them come from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, who is the procurer and dispenser of those benefits to fallen man, and is prayed to as God. |
2 Corinthians 1:1
