2 Korintus 2:3
Konteks2:3 And I wrote this very thing to you, 1 so that when I came 2 I would not have sadness from those who ought to make me rejoice, since I am confident in you all that my joy would be yours.
2 Korintus 5:10
Konteks5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, 3 so that each one may be paid back according to what he has done while in the body, whether good or evil. 4
[2:3] 1 tn The words “to you” are not in the Greek text but are implied.
[2:3] 2 sn So that when I came. Regarding this still future visit by Paul, see 2 Cor 12:14; 13:1.
[5:10] 3 sn The judgment seat (βῆμα, bhma) was a raised platform mounted by steps and sometimes furnished with a seat, used by officials in addressing an assembly or making pronouncements, often on judicial matters. The judgment seat was a common item in Greco-Roman culture, often located in the agora, the public square or marketplace in the center of a city. Use of the term in reference to Christ’s judgment would be familiar to Paul’s 1st century readers.
