哥林多後書 4:8 Meaning and Commentary

2 Corinthians 4:8

We are troubled on every side
Or afflicted; (en panti) , either "in every place", wherever we are, into whatsoever country, city, or town we enter, we are sure to meet with trouble, of one sort or another; for wherever we be, we are in the world, in which we must expect tribulation: or "always", every day and hour we live, as in ( 2 Corinthians 4:10 2 Corinthians 4:11 ) we are never free from one trial or another: or "by everyone"; by all sorts of persons, good and bad, professors and profane, open persecutors and false brethren; yea, some of the dear children of God, weak believers, give us trouble: or "with every sort" of trouble, inward and outward; trouble from the world, the flesh and the devil:

yet not distressed;
so as to have no hope, or see no way of escape; so as to have no manner of comfort, or manifestations of the love of God; or so as to be straitened in our own souls; for notwithstanding all our troubles, we have freedom at the throne of grace, and in our ministry; we can go with liberty to God, and preach the Gospel boldly to you:

we are perplexed;
and sometimes know not what to do, which way to take, what course to steer, or how we shall be relieved and supplied; we are sometimes at the utmost loss about things temporal, how we shall be provided for with food and raiment; nor are we without our perplexing thoughts, doubts, and fears, about spiritual affairs:

but not in despair;
of the Lord's appearing and working salvation, both in a temporal and spiritual sense.

哥林多後書 4:8 In-Context

6 那 吩 咐 光 從 黑 暗 裡 照 出 來 的 神 , 已 經 照 在 我 們 心 裡 , 叫 我 們 得 知 神 榮 耀 的 光 顯 在 耶 穌 基 督 的 面 上 。
7 我 們 有 這 寶 貝 放 在 瓦 器 裡 , 要 顯 明 這 莫 大 的 能 力 是 出 於 神 , 不 是 出 於 我 們 。
8 我 們 四 面 受 敵 , 卻 不 被 困 住 ; 心 裡 作 難 , 卻 不 至 失 望 ;
9 遭 逼 迫 , 卻 不 被 丟 棄 ; 打 倒 了 , 卻 不 至 死 亡 。
10 身 上 常 帶 著 耶 穌 的 死 , 使 耶 穌 的 生 也 顯 明 在 我 們 身 上 。
