Context8:10 So here is my opinion on this matter: It is to your advantage, since you 1 made a good start last year both in your giving and your desire to give,

Translators often supply an English phrase like “it is” (NASB) but in the context, Paul is clearly referring to the collection Titus was to oversee (2 Cor 8:4-7). Therefore there is no reason not to specify the referent (the gift) more narrowly for clarity.
