People's Commentary (NT)
2 Corinthians 2:17
We are not as many, who corrupt the word of God. The Greek city
figure is taken from the tavern-keepers who adulterate the wine they
offer for sale. There were those at Corinth, Judaizing teachers, who
adulterated the gospel with ingredients of Judaism. These are the
"false brethren" (2 Corinthians 11:26) with whom his whole ministry was a
struggle. See also Galatians 2:4.
But as of sincerity, but as of God. On the contrary, he and his
fellow-preachers spoke the words of genuine sincerity and with a sense
of responsibility to God.
