2 Corinthians 9:10

ὁ δὲ ἐπιχορηγῶν “ σπέρμα τῷ σπείροντι κ. τ. λ.: and he that supplieth “seed to the sower and bread for food,” shall supply and multiply your seed, i.e., your means of giving, for sowing (the A. V. not only follows the inferior reading, but conceals the quotation from Isaiah 55:10), and increase (cf. 1 Corinthians 3:6 for the trans, use of f1αὐξάνω) the “fruits” of your “righteousness,” i.e., of your beneficence, as in the preceding verse. The phrase γενήματα δικαιοσύνης in ref. Hosea may be illustrated by τὸ γένημα τῆς ἀμπέλου, “the fruit of the vine” in the Gospels (e.g., Mark 14:25). This verse is the application, as it were, of the quotation in 2 Corinthians 9:9, the connecting link being the word δικαιοσύνη.
