2 Corinthians 2
Introduction
1 | Having shown the reason why he came not to them, |
6 | he requires them to forgive and to comfort that excommunicated person, |
10 | even as himself also upon his true repentance had forgiven him; |
12 | declaring withal why he departed from Troas to Macedonia, |
14 | and the happy success which God gave to his preaching in all places. |
