2 Corinthians 8:19

And not that only, &c.— This verse is to be included in a parenthesis, and the continued sense of 2 Corinthians 8:18; 2 Corinthians 8:20 will be, We have sent that brother,—to avoid blame, &c. Dr. Heylin translates and connects the verses from 18 to 21 thus: A brother, who is not only famous for his success in preaching the Gospel, 2 Corinthians 8:19 but also is particularly appointed by the churches to accompany me with this collection, which we shall dispose of to the glory of God, and agreeably to your good intention, 2 Corinthians 8:20. (I have used this precaution [in having one joined with me] to prevent any suspicion that might be raised, upon my having the management of so large a sum; 2 Corinthians 8:21. For I am careful to conduct myself unblamably, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight men.)
