2 Korintus 5:16

5:16 So then from now on we acknowledge ¹  no one from an outward human point of view. ²  Even though we have known Christ from such a human point of view, ³  now we do not know him in that way any longer.

2 Korintus 8:2

8:2 that during a severe ordeal of suffering, their abundant joy and their extreme poverty have overflowed in the wealth ⁴  of their generosity.

2 Korintus 11:27

11:27 in hard work and toil, ⁵  through many sleepless nights, in hunger and thirst, many times without food, in cold and without enough clothing. ⁶ 

[5:16]  ¹ tn Grk “we know.”

[5:16]  ² tn Grk “no one according to the flesh.”

[5:16]  ³ tn Grk “we have known Christ according to the flesh.”

[8:2]  ⁴ tn Or “riches.”

[11:27]  ⁵ tn The two different words for labor are translated “in hard work and toil” by L&N 42.48.

[11:27]  ⁶ tn Grk “in cold and nakedness.” Paul does not mean complete nakedness, however, which would have been repugnant to a Jew; he refers instead to the lack of sufficient clothing, especially in cold weather. A related word is used to 1 Cor 4:11, also in combination with experiencing hunger and thirst.
