Contextual Overview

¹ Of the ministryng to the saintes, it is but superfluous for me to write vnto you: ² For I knowe the redinesse of your mynde, whereof I boast my selfe of you, vnto them of Macedonia, that Achaia was prepared a yere a go: and your zeale hath prouoked many. ³ Yet haue I sent the brethren, lest our boastyng which I make of you, should be in vayne in this behalfe, that ye (as I haue sayde) may prepare your selues. ⁴ Lest yf they of Macedonia come with me, and fynde you vnprepared, we (I wyll not say you) shoulde be ashamed in this matter of boastyng. ⁵ Therfore, I thought it necessarie to exhort the brethren, to come beforehand vnto you, and to prepare your good blessyng promised afore, that it myght be redy, so that it be as a blessyng, and not a defraudyng.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For as touching the ministering to the saints,.... It looks at first sight as if the apostle was entering upon a new subject, though by what follows it appears to be the same; for by "ministering to the saints", he does not mean the ministry of the Gospel to them; nor that mutual assistance members of churches are to give each other; but either the fellowship of ministering to the saints, which the churches had entreated him, and his fellow ministers, to take upon them, namely, to take the charge of their collections, and distribute them to the poor saints at Jerusalem; or rather these collections themselves, and their liberality in them: with respect to which he says,

it is superfluous for me to write to you; that is, he thought it unnecessary to say any more upon that head, because he had used so many arguments already to engage them in it, in the foregoing chapter; and because he had sent three brethren to them, who well understood the nature of this service, and were very capable of speaking to it, and of enforcing the reasonings already used; and more especially he judged it needless to dwell on this subject, for the reasons following.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

For as touching the ministering to the saints - In regard to the collection that was to be taken up for the aid of the poor Christians in Judea; see the notes on Romans 15:26; 1 Corinthians 16:1; 2 Corinthians 8:0.

It is superfluous ... - It is needless to urge that matter on you, because I know that you acknowledge the obligation to do it, and have already purposed it.

For me to write to you - That is, to write more, or to write largely on the subject. It is unnecessary for me to urge arguments why it should be done; and all that is proper is to offer some suggestions in regard to the manner in which it shall be accomplished.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER IX.

St. Paul intimates that so ready were the Corinthians to make

this charitable contribution, that it was scarcely necessary

for him to write, 1, 2.

But lest they should not be ready when he came, he had sent

the brethren, Titus, c., beforehand lest, if any of the

Macedonians should come with him, they should find them not

prepared, though he had boasted so much of their ready mind,

3-5.

He gives them directions how they shall contribute; and the

advantage to be gained by it, in the fulfilment of the

promises of God, 6-11.

He shows them that by this means the poor shall be relieved,

God glorified, their Christian temper manifested, and the

prayers of many engaged in their behalf, 12-14.

And concludes with giving thanks to God for his unspeakable

gift, 15.

NOTES ON CHAP. IX.
