1 Corinthians 16:2

16:2 On the first day of the week, each of you should set aside some income ⁴  and save ⁵  it to the extent that God has blessed you, ⁶  so that a collection will not have to be made ⁷  when I come.

[1:12]  ¹ tn Or “And I say this because.”

[3:5]  ² tn Grk “and to each as the Lord gave.”

[3:8]  ³ tn Grk “are one.” The purpose of this phrase is to portray unified action on the part of ministers underneath God’s sovereign control. Although they are in fact individuals, they are used by God with a single purpose to accomplish his will in facilitating growth. This emphasis is brought out in the translation “work as one.”

[16:2]  ⁴ tn Grk “set aside, storing whatever he has been blessed with.”

[16:2]  ⁵ tn Grk “set aside, storing.” The participle θησαυρίζων (qhsaurizwn) indicates the purpose or result of setting aside the extra income.

[16:2]  ⁶ tn “To the extent that God has blessed you” translates an awkward expression, “whatever has been prospered [to you].” This verb has been translated as an active with “God” as subject, taking it as a divine passive.

[16:2]  ⁷ tn Grk “so that collections will not be taking place.”
