2 Corinthians 7:14

ὅτι εἴ τι κ. τ. λ.: for if in anything I have gloried to him on your behalf, i.e., have boasted of you (cf. 2 Corinthians 9:2; 2 Corinthians 12:5), I was not put to shame, sc., by the vanity of my boasting being exposed; but as we spake all things to you in truth (this he is continually insisting on, e.g., at 2 Corinthians 1:18; 2 Corinthians 2:17; 2 Corinthians 4:2, etc.), so our glorying also, viz., that made before Titus (cf. Mark 13:9 for ἐπί with the gen.), was found (not “is found” as A.V., but “was found” as at 1 Corinthians 1:30) to be truth.
