Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

2 Corinthians 10:16

_ _ To — that is, so as to preach ... beyond you (and) not to boast, etc.

_ _ in another man’s line of things made ready to our hand — Do not connect “line of things,” etc.; but “boast of things,” etc. To make this clearer, arrange the words thus, “Not to boast as to things (already made by the preaching of others) ready to our hand in another man’s line (that is, within the line, or sphere of labor, apportioned by God to another).”

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 2 Corinthians 10:12-18.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

To preach the gospel in the [regions] beyond you, [and] not to boast in (n) another man's line of things made ready to our hand.
