This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
8. ἕως τῆς πεντηκοστῆς. Observe the minute, yet undesigned agreement of this passage with the narrative in the Acts. We find (Act 19:21) that St Paul had decided on visiting Greece some time before he was able to set out; that he sent Timothy to Macedonia (Act 19:22), whence (see 1Co 16:10, and cf. ch. 1Co 4:17) it was intended that he should proceed to Corinth; and that the ‘many adversaries’ of the next verse (cf. Act 19:23-41) hindered the Apostle from following him as soon as he had intended.
