2 Corinthians 8:22-23

Context
8:22 And we are sending 5  with them our brother whom we have tested many times and found eager in many matters, but who now is much more eager than ever because of the great confidence he has in you. 8:23 If there is any question 6  about Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker among you; if there is any question about our brothers, they are messengers 7  of the churches, a glory to Christ.

1 tn Grk “gospel, and not only this, but.” Here a new sentence was started in the translation.

2 tn Grk “he”; the referent (the brother mentioned in v. 18) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

3 tn That is, the offering or collection being taken to assist impoverished Christians.

4 tn The words “to help” are not in the Greek text but are implied (see L&N 25.68).

5 tn This verb has been translated as an epistolary aorist.

6 tn Grk “If concerning Titus” (εἴτε ὑπὲρ Τίτου, eite Juper Titou); the Greek sentence opens with an ellipsis which must be supplied: If [there is any question] about Titus.”

7 tn Grk “apostles.”
