This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
2Co 5:4. Καὶ γὰρ, for even) The reason of the earnest desire [2Co 5:2.]-στενάζομεν βαρούμενοι, we do groan being burdened) An appropriate phrase. A burden wrings out sighing and groaning.-ἐκδύσασθαι) to be unclothed, to strip off the body. Faith does not acknowledge the philosophical contempt of the body, which was given by the Creator.
