2 Corinthians 4:13
_ _ Translate as Greek, “BUT having,” etc., that is, not withstanding the trials just mentioned, we having, etc.
_ _ the same spirit of faith, according as it, etc. — Compare Romans 8:15, on the usage of “spirit of faith.” The Holy Spirit acting on our spirit. Though “death worketh in us, and life in you” (2 Corinthians 4:12), yet as we have the same spirit of faith as you, we therefore [believingly] look for the same immortal life as you [Estius], and speak as we believe. Alford not so well translates, “The same ... faith with that described in the Scriptures” (Psalms 116:10). The balance of the sentence requires the parallelism to be this, “According to that which is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak,” namely, without fear, amidst “afflictions” and “deaths” (2 Corinthians 4:17). |
2 Corinthians 4:13
Having the same spirit of faith — Which animated the saints of old; David, in particular, when he said, I believed, and therefore have I spoken — That is, I trusted in God, and therefore he hath put this song of praise in my mouth. We also speak — We preach the gospel, even in the midst of affliction and death, because we believe that God will raise us up from the dead, and will present us, ministers, with you, all his members, "faultless before his presence with exceeding joy." Psalms 116:10. |
2 Corinthians 4:13
(8) We having the same (m) spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;
(8) He declares the former sentence, showing that he and his associates die in a way to purchase life for others, but yet nonetheless they are partakers of the same life with them: because they themselves do first believe that which they offer to others to believe, that is, that they also will be saved together with them in Christ.
(m) The same faith, by the inspiration of the same Spirit. |
- the same:
Acts 15:11 But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.
Romans 1:12 That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.
1 Corinthians 12:9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
Hebrews 11:1-40 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. ... God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.
2 Peter 1:1 Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:
|
- I believed:
Psalms 116:10 I believed, therefore have I spoken: I was greatly afflicted:
|
- we also:
2 Corinthians 3:12 Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech:
Proverbs 21:28 A false witness shall perish: but the man that heareth speaketh constantly.
