Apostolic Ministry

2:14 But thanks be to God who always leads us in triumphal procession ⁶  in Christ ⁷  and who makes known ⁸  through us the fragrance that consists of the knowledge of him in every place.

2 Corinthians 4:15

2 Corinthians 6:17

6:17 Therefore “come out from their midst, and be separate,” says the Lord, “and touch no unclean thing, ¹¹  and I will welcome ¹²  you, ¹³ 

[1:10]  ¹ tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, the relative clause “who delivered us…” was made a separate sentence in the translation.

[1:10]  ² tn Grk “deliver us, on whom we have set our hope.”

[1:10]  ³ tc Several important witnesses, especially Alexandrian (Ì⁴⁶ B D* 0121 0243 1739 1881 pc Did), lack ὅτι ({oti, “that”) here, while others, most notably Western (D¹ F G 104 630 1505 pc ar b sy^h Or Ambst), lack ἔτι (eti, “yet”). Most mss, including important Alexandrians (א A C D² Ψ 33 Ï f t vg), have the full expression ὅτι καὶ ἔτι ({oti kai eti). Although the predominantly Alexandrian reading has much to commend it, the fact that either ὅτι or ἔτι has been dropped, while the καί has been retained, suggests that the original wording had ὅτι καὶ ἔτι, and that either particle dropped out intentionally for stylistic reasons. (F and G have the order καί ὅτι, suggesting that in their archetype the ἔτι was unintentionally dropped due to homoioteleuton.) If, however, ὅτι is not authentic, v. 10b should be translated “We have set our hope on him, and he will deliver us again.” Overall, a decision is difficult, but preference should be given to ὅτι καὶ ἔτι.

[1:13]  ⁴ tn Grk “than the things.”

[1:13]  ⁵ tn Grk “to the end,” a Greek idiom for “fully,” “totally,” “completely.”

[2:14]  ⁷ tn Or “who always causes us to triumph.”

[2:14]  ⁸ tn Or “in the Messiah.”

[2:14]  ⁹ tn Or “who reveals.”

[4:15]  ¹⁰ tn Or “that is abounding to.”
