VERSE (14) - 2Co 2:5 Ro 11:25 1Co 11:18

SEV Biblia, Chapter 1:14

como tambin en parte habis conocido que somos vuestro regocijo, así como tambin vosotros el nuestro, en el día del Seor Jess.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Corinthians 1:14

Verse 14. Have acknowledged us in part] apo merouv may signify here not in part, but some of you; and it is evident, from the distracted state of the Corinthians, and the opposition raised there against the apostle, that it was only a part of them that did acknowledge him, and receive and profit by his epistles and advice.

We are your rejoicing, &c.] You boast of us as the ministers of Christ through whom ye have believed; as we boast of you as genuine converts to the Christian faith, and worthy members of the Church of God.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 14. As also you have acknowledged us in part , etc..] This may refer either to the thing known and acknowledged, namely, the integrity of the apostle's conversation, and others; which though they did not know thoroughly and perfectly, yet did in part, and that so far as that they might acquit them from the charge brought against them; or to the persons who knew this, as that there were some in the church of Corinth, a part of them, though not all, who knew and had acknowledged them to be upright and sincere ministers of the word, and had declared that they had reason to rejoice and bless God that ever they heard them: and that we are your rejoicing : or glorying in, or unto the day of the Lord Jesus: when he shall come to judge the world in righteousness, then they should before him, angels and men, rejoice and glory in this, that they had been blessed with such sincere and faithful ministers, who sought not any worldly advantage, but the glory of Christ, and the salvation of souls: even as , adds the apostle, ye also are ours ; we do now, and so we shall then, rejoice and glory in this, that our labour among you was not in vain, but was blessed for your conversion and edification.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 12-14 - Though, as a sinner, the apostle could only rejoice and glory in Chris Jesus, yet, as a believer, he might rejoice and glory in being reall what he professed. Conscience witnesses concerning the steady cours and tenor of the life. Thereby we may judge ourselves, and not by thi or by that single act. Our conversation will be well ordered, when we live and act under such a gracious principle in the heart. Having this we may leave our characters in the Lord's hands, but using proper mean to clear them, when the credit of the gospel, or our usefulness, call for it.

Vincent's NT Word Studies

14. In part (apo merouv). Referring to the partial understanding of his character and motives by the Corinthians.

15 Before (proteron). Rather, first of all. Instead of going first to the Macedonians, as he afterward decided. See 1 Cor. xvi. 5.

Second benefit (deuteran carin). Benefit is, literally, grace. Not a mere pleasurable experience through Paul's visit, but a divine bestowal of grace. Compare Rom. i. 11. Second refers to his original plan to visit Corinth twice, on his way to Macedonia and on his return.

Robertson's NT Word Studies

1:14 {As also ye did acknowledge us in part} (kaqws kai epegnwte hemas apo merous). Gracious acknowledgment (second aorist active indicative of epignwskw) to the original Pauline party (#1Co 1:12; 3:4) that he had seemed to care so little for them. And now in his hour of victory he shows that, if he is their ground of glorying, they are his also (cf. #1Th 2:19f.; Php 2:16).
