Regarded as the most personal of Paul's weighty and strong"
(10:10) letters, the Second Letter to the Corinthians continues to
contribute toward the *building up - (13:10) of its readers.
The Second Letter to the Corinthians is an implicit yet
undeniable plea that Paul addresses to the Christians of Corinth
and is impressive above al for its exposition of the apostle's
identity. In this letter Paul more than once fiercely counters the
attacks of his opponents. He extensively describes both the quality
and circumstances of his apostolic existence: the sufferings he
endures, the opposition he encounters, and his continual care for
the Churches. Second Corinthians is, therefore, highly significant
theologically as well as autobiographically.
Not an easy letter to follow, the emotional language used in 2
Corinthians, the question of the integrity of 2 Corinthians as a
letter, and inadequate information about the concrete situation at
Corinth and the identity of Paul's opponents make following the
flow of Paul's argument difficult at times. Yet 2 Corinthians is an
especially important document because of Paul's ongoing reflection
on his ministry. It is both profound in its content and style for
its original audience as well as for today's readers.
