哥林多後書 9:13-14 CUNPTS

The Pulpit Commentary - 2 Corinthians 9:13

By the experiment of this ministration; rather, by the test ( of your love ) furnished by this ministration ( 2 Corinthians 8:2 ). For your professed subjection; literally, for the submission of your confession to the gospel of Christ . And for your liberal distribution unto them; rather, and for the simplicity of your fellowship towards them . A large contribution would prove two things; namely, read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 2 Corinthians 9:14

And by their prayer for you. These words are joined by our Authorized Version with "glorifying God." The saints at Jerusalem would, in consequence of the proved sincerity of the Corinthians, glorify God with thanksgiving for their faithfulness and kindness, by prayer for them. The Revisers take the clause with the following participle, "while they themselves also, with supplication on your behalf, long after you by reason of the exceeding grace of God in you." This is the only right view of... read more

And by their prayer for you - On the grammatical construction of this difficult verse, Doddridge and Bloomfield may be consulted. It is probably to be taken in connection with 2 Corinthians 9:12, and 2 Corinthians 9:13 is a parenthesis. Thus interpreted, the sense will be, “The administration of this service 2 Corinthians 9:12 will produce abundant thanks to God. It will also 2 Corinthians 9:14 produce another effect. It will tend to excite the prayers of the saints for you, and thus produce... read more

2 Corinthians 9:10-14 . Now he that ministereth seed to the sower By making the earth fruitful; and bread for your food (So Bengelius reads,) namely, all things needful for your souls and bodies. May he supply and multiply ( χορηγησαι και πληθυναι ) your seed sown Your ability to help others; and increase the fruits of your righteousness The happy effects of your love to God and man: or may he make an ample return for what you have liberally bestowed on the indigent, and abundantly... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 2 Corinthians 9:6-15

The blessing of Christian giving (9:6-15)God takes notice of the way Christians give, and if they give generously he rewards them generously. People should decide thoughtfully the amount they should give, then give it joyfully (6-7). They need not fear poverty if they give much, because God is able to increase his supply to ensure that generous givers still have more than they need (8-10; cf. Proverbs 11:24). The threefold result of true giving is that the poor are helped, the givers are... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - 2 Corinthians 9:13

Seeing that by the proving of you by this ministration they glorify God for the obedience of your confession unto the gospel of Christ, and for the liberality of your contribution unto them and unto all.By the proving of you ... Giving is the divine test of Christianity. Non-givers are non-Christian.The obedience of your confession ... By virtue of one's conversion, he is already pledged as a giver to support God's work. That he shall, in fact, do so is inherently demanded by his confession. read more
