This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Than what ye read (all' ē ha anaginōskete). Note comparative conjunction ē (than) after all' and that after alla (other things, same word in reality), “other than.” Read in Greek (anaginōskō) is knowing again, recognizing. See note on Act 8:30.

Or even acknowledge (ē kai epiginōskete). Paul is fond of such a play on words (anaginōskete, epiginōskete) or paronomasia. Does he mean “read between the lines,” as we say, by the use of epi (additional knowledge)?

Unto the end (heōs telous). The report of Titus showed that the majority now at last understood Paul. He hopes that it will last (1Co 1:8).
