κοινωνίας. To share your goods with others (Romans 15:26). It is rendered “distribution” in 2 Corinthians 9:13.

τοιαύταις γὰρ θυσίαις. The verse is meant to remind them that sacrifices of well-doing and the free sharing of their goods are even more necessary than verbal gratitude unaccompanied by sincerity of action (Isaiah 29:13; Ezekiel 33:31).
