6 Ma Iddio, che consola gli umiliati, ci ha consolati per la venuta di Tito.

2 Corinzi 7:6 Meaning and Commentary

2 Corinthians 7:6

Nevertheless, God that comforteth those that are cast down,
&c.] Or "humble ones": such as are humbled under the afflicting hand of God, and have low and mean apprehensions of themselves; these God looks unto, dwells with, revives their hearts, cheers their drooping spirits, and fills them with comforts; he has been used to do so with such persons; he has raised comfort to them; they may expect it, and the apostle experienced it; and which he refers to God as the author of it, as he had done in the beginning of this epistle, calling him "the God of all comfort"; he was the efficient cause, the means by which it was effected was the coming of Titus:

comforted us by the coming of Titus;
to whom the apostle bore a very great affection, he being his son in a spiritual sense, a companion with him in his travels, and of great usefulness and service in the ministration of the Gospel; so that the very sight of him gave him pleasure; and the more, inasmuch as he had for some time longed to see him, that he might have some account from him of the affairs of this church.

2 Corinzi 7:6 In-Context

4 Io ho gran libertà di parlare inverso voi, io ho molto di che gloriarmi di voi; io son ripieno di consolazione, io soprabbondo di letizia in tutta la nostra afflizione.

5 Perciocchè, essendo noi venuti in Macedonia, la nostra carne non ha avuta requie alcuna; ma siamo stati afflitti in ogni maniera: combattimenti di fuori, spaventi di dentro.

6 Ma Iddio, che consola gli umiliati, ci ha consolati per la venuta di Tito.

7 E non sol per la venuta d’esso, ma ancora per la consolazione della quale è stato consolato appresso di voi; rapportandoci la vostra grande affezione, il vostro pianto, il vostro zelo per me; talchè io me ne son molto maggiormente rallegrato.

8 Perciocchè, benchè io vi abbia contristati per quell’epistola, ora non me ne pento, benchè io me ne fossi pentito; poichè io vedo che quell’epistola, quantunque per un breve tempo, vi ha contristati.
