This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

2Co 8:12. Πρόκειται, if there be obvious [if there be first]) So πονηρία πρόκειται ὑμῖν, evil is before you, Exo 10:10.-εὐπρόσδεκτος, he is well-acccepted or very acceptable) to God, ch. 2Co 9:7, with his gift. [Not as Engl. V. “it is accepted;” 2Co 9:7 confirms this, “The Lord loveth a cheerful giver.”]-οὐ καθὸ οὐκ ἔχει, not according to what a man has not) For thus [were God’s favour regulated by the amount of the gift, not by the willingness of the giver] a more humble person would be less acceptable.
