The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 16:5

When I shall pass through Macedonia; rather, when 1 have passed through Macedonia. For I do pass through Macedonia ; rather, for 1 mean to pass through Macedonia. We learn from 2 Corinthians 1:15 , 2 Corinthians 1:16 , that it had been St. Paul's intention to sail from Ephesus to Corinth, thence, after a brief stay, to proceed to Macedonia, and on his return to come again for a longer stay at Corinth on his way to Judaea. He had in an Epistle, now lost (see 1 Corinthians 5:9 ),... read more

Words to those who travel. I. WE SHOULD ALWAYS BE ON OUR MASTER 'S BUSINESS . This we may be if we are engaged in "secular" affairs. Every part of life is to be consecrated to God. A Christian is a Christian always, and a servant always. Everything may be consecrated. Whether we eat or drink, or whatever we do, we may do all to the glory of God.

Yea, and winter with you. This he did ( Acts 20:3-6 ). That ye may bring me on my journey. The "ye" is emphatic. The acceptance of this favour at their hands was a proof of affection. It was the custom in ancient days to accompany a departing guest for a short distance ( Romans 15:24 ; Acts 15:3 ; Acts 17:15 ). Whithersoever I go. St. Paul well knew that some uncertainty must attach to his plans. As it was, he had to change his plan at the last moment. He had meant to sail from... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 16:6-18

St. Paul and his purposes; his friends; earnest exhortation. If the apostle were before us in his Epistles as an inspired man of genius only, whose intellect teemed with great thoughts, and whose heart was absorbed in supplying fervency to those thoughts, his hold upon us would be weakened. The man has nothing about him of the intellectualist. Among the varieties of mind and character that have arisen from time to time in the development of humanity, turn for a moment to the ideal of an... read more
