2Co 4:1. Τήν διακονίαν ταύτην, this ministry) of which 2Co 3:6, etc.-καθὼς ἠλεήθημεν, as we have received mercy) The mercy of God, by which the ministry is received, makes men active and sincere. Even Moses obtained mercy, and hence he was permitted to approach so near, Exo 33:19.-οὐκ-ἀλλʼ, not-but) A double proposition; the second part is immediately brought under our consideration by chiasmus;[18] the former from 2Co 4:16. Wherefore ΟὐΚ ἘΚΚΑΚΟῦΜΕΝ, we faint not, is there repeated; we admit of no serious falling off in speaking, in acting, in suffering.
