Kehillah in Corinth II 6:12 Meaning and Commentary

2 Corinthians 6:12

Ye are not straitened in us
The meaning of which is, either you are not brought into straits and difficulties by us; we do not afflict and distress you, or fill you with anguish and trouble;

but ye are straitened in your own bowels;
you are distressed by some among yourselves, who ought not to be with you, with whom you should have no fellowship and communion: or thus, you have room enough in our hearts, our hearts are so enlarged with love to you, that they are large enough to hold you all; an expression, setting forth the exceeding great love, and strong affection the apostle bore to the Corinthians; when, on the other hand, they had but very little love to him comparatively; he had a heart to hold them all without being straitened for room; and among all them they could scarce find room enough in their hearts and affections for him.

Kehillah in Corinth II 6:12 In-Context

10 As having agmat nefesh but always having simcha, as poor but enriching many, as having nothing and yet possessing everything.

11 We have spoken freely with you Corinthians, our levavot has been enlarged.

12 There is no penury in our affections, only in yours.

13 Now (I speak as to yeladim) make a fair exchange and open wide your levavot [1C 4:14].

14 Do not become unequally yoked with koferim (unbelievers) [Ep 5:7,11] for what shuttafut (partnership) has Tzedek with Lawlessness? Or where is the Brit (Covenant) between Ohr (light) and Choshech (darkness)? [BERESHIS 24:3; DEVARIM 22:10]
