2 Corinthians 2:7

Forgive [χ α ρ ι σ α σ θ α ι]. The idea of freeness (cariv, see on Luke 1:30) lies in the word forgive, which is forth - give.

Overmuch sorrow [τ η π ε ρ ι σ σ ο τ ε ρ α λ υ π η]. Rev. gives the force of the article, his sorrow. Overmuch, excessive, through the refusal of pardon.
