2 Corinthians 2 is the second chapter of the Second Epistle to the Corinthians in the New Testament of the Christian Bible. It is authored by Paul the Apostle and Timothy (2 Corinthians 1:1) in Macedonia in 55–56 CE.[1]

Text

The original text was written in Koine Greek. This chapter is divided into 17 verses.

Textual witnesses

Some early manuscripts containing the text of this chapter are:

Forgive the offender

The unnamed offender, Biblical Greek: τοιοῦτος, toioutos, "such a one" (KJV), "a man in his position" (J. B. Phillips' translation) is the man who, in 1 Corinthians 5:1 "has his father’s wife".[3]

Verse 16

To the one we are the aroma of death leading to death, and to the other the aroma of life leading to life. And who is sufficient for these things?[4]
  • "Leading to death" (NKJV; KJV: "unto death"): or "for death", "appointed to" death (cf. Jeremiah 43:11).[5]

Verse 17

For we are not, as so many, peddling the word of God; but as of sincerity, but as from God, we speak in the sight of God in Christ.[6]
  • "We are not, as so many": Paul separates himself from the false apostles, who are "many", forming "great swarms of false teachers" in the early times of Christianity (cf. 1 John 2:18; 1 John 4:1). Some copies read, "as the rest", as the Syriac and Arabic versions.[7]
  • "Peddling the word of God" (KJV: which corrupt the word of God): that is the Scriptures in general may be corrupted by "false glosses and human mixtures". The Septuagint translates the last clause of Isaiah 1:22 oi kaphloi sou misgousi ton (oinon udati, "thy vintners mix wine with water"), in a moral or spiritual sense. The Syriac version reads the words Nygzmmd, "who mix the word of God."[7]
  • "We speak ... in Christ": which is "in the name of Christ, of or concerning him, and him only."[7]
