14. After ἡμῶν אB 115 omit ἡ, which א3CDFGKLP insert.

14. εἵ τι … κακαύχημαι, οὐ κατῃσχύνθην. For if in anything I have gloried (see on 2 Corinthians 9:2) to him on your behalf (2 Corinthians 5:4; 2 Corinthians 9:2) I was not put to shame (2 Corinthians 9:4; Romans 9:33). ‘I am not ashamed’ (A.V.) is not what S. Paul says. He ‘was not put to shame’ (R.V.) by his praise of them turning out to be undeserved. He had praised them to Titus, and Titus had found that the praise was true.

ὡς πάντα ἐν� … οὕτως καὶ ἡ καύχησις. As we spake all things to you in truth, so our glorying also was found to be truth. Both in what he said to them, and in what he has said about them, he was proved to be sincere.

ἐπὶ Τίτου. Before Titus, in his presence: comp. ἐπὶ τῶν�, and ἐπὶ� (1 Corinthians 6:1; 1 Corinthians 6:6).
