2 Corintios 6:12

12 No estáis estrechos en nosotros, sino estáis estrechos en vuestras propias entrañas.

2 Corintios 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.

2 Corintios 6:12 In-Context

10 como doloridos, mas siempre gozosos; como pobres, pero enriqueciendo a muchos; como los que no tienen nada, mas que lo poseen todo.

11 Nuestra boca está abierta a vosotros, oh corintios, nuestro corazón es ensanchado.

12 No estáis estrechos en nosotros, sino estáis estrechos en vuestras propias entrañas.

13 Pues, por la misma recompensa (como a hijos hablo), ensanchaos también vosotros.

14 No os juntéis en yugo con los incrédulos; porque ¿qué compañía tiene la justicia con la injusticia? ¿Y qué comunicación la luz con las tinieblas?
