On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

4 Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my glorying of you: I am filled with comfort, I am exceeding joyful in all our tribulation. These verses contain a double exhortation:-- I. To make a progress in holiness, or to perfect holiness in the fear of God,

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Paul was glad, and Titus was glad, and the Corinthians were comforted, and the penitent ought to be comforted; and well may all this joy be on earth, when there is joy in heaven over one sinner that repenteth.
