My love, &c.--After having administered some severe rebukes, he closes with expressions of "love": his very rebukes were prompted by love, and therefore are altogether in harmony with the profession of love here made: it was love in Christ Jesus, and therefore embraced "all" who loved Him. The subscription represents the Epistle as written from Philippi. Co1 16:8 shows it was written at Ephesus. BENGEL conjectures that perhaps, however, it was sent from Philippi (Co1 16:5), because the deputies of the Corinthians had accompanied Paul thither. From Ephesus there was a road to Corinth above Philippi. Next: 2 Corinthians Introduction
