2 Corinthians 5:14

Context
5:14 For the love of Christ 1  controls us, since we have concluded this, that Christ 2  died for all; therefore all have died.

2 Corinthians 8:15

Context
8:15 as it is written: “The one who gathered 3  much did not have too much, and the one who gathered little did not have too little.” 4 

1 tn The phrase ἡ ἀγάπη τοῦ Χριστοῦ (Jh agaph tou Cristou, “the love of Christ”) could be translated as either objective genitive (“our love for Christ”) or subjective genitive (“Christ’s love for us”). Either is grammatically possible, but with the reference to Christ’s death for all in the following clauses, a subjective genitive (“Christ’s love for us”) is more likely.

2 tn Grk “one”; the referent (Christ) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

3 tn The word “gathered” is not in the Greek text, but is implied (so also for the second occurrence of the word later in the verse).

4 sn A quotation from Exod 16:18.
