Discovery Box2 Corinthians 10:14-15 
Context10:14 For we were not overextending ourselves, as though we did not reach as far as you, because we were the first to reach as far as you with the gospel about Christ. 1 10:15 Nor do we boast beyond certain limits 2 in the work 3 done by others, but we hope 4 that as your faith continues to grow, our work may be greatly expanded 5 among you according to our limits, 6
1 tn Grk “with the gospel of Christ,” but since Χριστοῦ (Cristou) is clearly an objective genitive here, it is better to translate “with the gospel about Christ.”
2 tn Or “boast excessively.” The phrase εἰς τὰ ἄμετρα (ei" ta ametra) is an idiom; literally it means “into that which is not measured,” that is, a point on a scale that goes beyond what might be expected (L&N 78.27).
3 tn Or “in the labors.”
4 tn Grk “but we have the hope.”
5 tn Or “greatly enlarged.”
6 tn That is, Paul’s work might be greatly expanded within the area of activity assigned to him by God.
