13:11-14 The letter’s conclusion includes Paul’s final appeal (13:11), greetings (13:12-13), and a blessing (13:14). 13:11 These last words are Paul’s final instructions. • Be joyful: See also Phil 3:1; 4:4. • Grow to maturity: See study note on 2 Cor 13:9—Paul’s encouragement might be that they aim for restoration. • Encourage each other: The need for encouragement has been very prominent in 2 Corinthians, beginning with 1:3-7. • Live in harmony: Literally Be of the same mind (as in Phil 2:1-4).
