Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Second Epistle to the Corinthians presents one of the most personal and reflective letters of the New Testament in the enduring language of the King James Version.Traditionally attributed to the Apostle Paul, this epistle addresses a strained relationship between the apostle and the church at Corinth. Writing with candour and urgency, Paul defends the authenticity of his ministry while affirming his enduring affection for the community. He explains that previous severity arose not from hostility but from concern, seeking reconciliation rather than estrangement.The letter moves between theological exposition and personal testimony. It speaks of forgiveness and restoration, of a new covenant "not of the letter, but of the spirit," and of generosity toward fellow believers. Paul reflects upon weakness and suffering as the setting in which divine strength is made manifest, offering a sustained meditation on the paradox of power and vulnerability in Christian life.Presented here as a standalone volume in the measured and resonant prose of the 1611 King James translation, this edition preserves a text that has long shaped Christian reflection on ministry, reconciliation, generosity, and the nature of spiritual authority.
