2 Coríntios 1:5

5 Porque, como as aflições de Cristo transbordam para conosco, assim também por meio de Cristo transborda a nossa consolação.

2 Coríntios 1:5 Meaning and Commentary

2 Corinthians 1:5

For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us
By "the sufferings of Christ" are not meant those which he suffered in his own person for the sake, and in the room and stead of his people, the fruits and effects of which abound to them, and in them; but those which he suffers in his members, or which they suffer for his sake; and which are said to "abound in" them, because of the variety and greatness of them; though not as if they were more or greater than what Christ suffered in his soul and body, when he was made sin and a curse for his people: yet notwithstanding the abundance of them, such is the goodness and grace of God, that he proportions comforts to them; as their afflictions increase, so do their comforts; as their sufferings for the sake of Christ, and his Gospel, are more and greater,

so,
says he, our consolation aboundeth by Christ:
meaning, either that consolation which they felt and enjoyed in their own souls, under all their tribulations, which abundantly answered to them, and which they ascribe to Christ, from and by whom it comes to them; or else that consolation, which, by preaching Christ, abounded to the relief of others who were in distress and trouble.

2 Coríntios 1:5 In-Context

3 Bendito seja o Deus e Pai de nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo, o Pai das misericórdias e Deus de toda a consolação,

4 que nos consola em toda a nossa tribulação, para que também possamos consolar os que estiverem em alguma tribulação, pela consolação com que nós mesmos somos consolados por Deus.

5 Porque, como as aflições de Cristo transbordam para conosco, assim também por meio de Cristo transborda a nossa consolação.

6 Mas, se somos atribulados, é para vossa consolação e salvação; ou, se somos consolados, para vossa consolação é a qual se opera suportando com paciência as mesmas aflições que nós também padecemos;

7 e a nossa esperança acerca de vós é firme, sabendo que, como sois participantes das aflições, assim o sereis também da consolação.
