2 Corinthians 4:2

Context
4:2 But we have rejected 1  shameful hidden deeds, 2  not behaving 3  with deceptiveness 4  or distorting the word of God, but by open proclamation of the truth we commend ourselves to everyone’s conscience before God.

1 tn L&N 13.156; the word can also mean “to assert opposition to,” thus here “we have denounced” (L&N 33.220).

2 tn Grk “the hidden things [deeds] of shame”; here αἰσχύνης (aiscunh") has been translated as an attributive genitive.

3 tn Or “not conducting ourselves”; Grk “not walking” (a common NT idiom for conduct, way of life, or behavior).

4 tn Or “craftiness.”
