Notes on this text (1)

1 Для меня впрочем излишне писать вам о вспоможении святым, 2 ибо я знаю усердие ваше и хвалюсь вами перед Македонянами, что Ахаия приготовлена еще с прошедшего года; и ревность ваша поощрила многих. 3 Братьев же послал я для того, чтобы похвала моя о вас не оказалась тщетною в сем случае, но чтобы вы, как я говорил, были приготовлены, 4 и чтобы, когда придут со мною Македоняне и найдут вас неготовыми, не остались в стыде мы, — не говорю "вы", — похвалившись с такою уверенностью. 5 Посему я почел за нужное упросить братьев, чтобы они наперед пошли к вам и предварительно озаботились, дабы возвещенное уже благословение ваше было готово, как благословение, а не как побор. 6 При сем скажу: кто сеет скупо, тот скупо и пожнет; а кто сеет щедро, тот щедро и пожнет. 7 Каждый уделяй по расположению сердца, не с огорчением и не с принуждением; ибо доброхотно дающего любит Бог. 8 Бог же силен обогатить вас всякою благодатью, чтобы вы, всегда и во всем имея всякое довольство, были богаты на всякое доброе дело, 9 как написано: расточил, раздал нищим; правда его пребывает в век. 10 Дающий же семя сеющему и хлеб в пищу подаст обилие посеянному вами и умножит плоды правды вашей, 11 так чтобы вы всем богаты были на всякую щедрость, которая через нас производит благодарение Богу. 12 Ибо дело служения сего не только восполняет скудость святых, но и производит во многих обильные благодарения Богу; 13 ибо, видя опыт сего служения, они прославляют Бога за покорность исповедуемому вами Евангелию Христову и за искреннее общение с ними и со всеми, 14 молясь за вас, по расположению к вам, за преизбыточествующую в вас благодать Божию. 15 Благодарение Богу за неизреченный дар Его!

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 9:1 John Chrysostom, Homilies on Second Corinthians (Homily XIX)

    Though he had said so much about it, he says here, "It is superfluous for me to write to you." And his wisdom is shown not only in this, that though he had said so much about it, he saith, "it is superfluous for me to write to you," but in that he yet again speaketh of it.

    … to the end shall be saved." They grieve for sin, hearing that "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us."

  3. Quotes verse 9:15 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily XII)

    Because then also, when things were desperate, there was a sort of deliverance and reformation; but then by punishment, now, on the contrary, by grace and an unspeakable gift. Therefore the dove also appears, not bearing an olive branch, but pointing out to us our Deliverer from all evils, and suggesting the gracious hopes.

  4. Quotes verse 9:7 Augustine of Hippo, Our Lord's Sermon on the Mount (Book I, Chapter XX)

    Then, as to what He says, "From him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away," it is to be referred to the mind; for God loveth a cheerful giver. Moreover, every one who accepts anything borrows, even if he himself is not going to pay it; for inasmuch as God pays back more to the merciful, whosoever does …

  5. Quotes verse 9:8 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily LV)

    "That, always having all sufficiency, we may abound unto every good work." See how they fulfill that word of the gospel which saith, "Give us this day our daily bread," and how they seek even this for spiritual ends.
