This letter was written by the Apostle Paul to the Christians of Corinth, and it concerns questions of vital importance relative to the life and ministry and message of the church. While the circumstances under which these questions arose were largely local and temporary, their treatment by the apostle is of immediate interest and abiding value for the reason that he discusses each one in the light of some permanent principle. - Foreword.

The question that Paul set before the ancient church in Corinth -- Do you not recognize that Jesus Christ is in and among you? (2 Cor 13:5) -- remains a critical question for the church today. This commentary by Mark Seifrid seeks to hear Paul s message afresh and communicate it to our time. Seifrid offers a unified reading of 2 Corinthians, which has often been regarded as a composite of excerpts and fragments. He argues that Paul s message is directed at the practical atheism of the Corinthian church -- the hidden heresy that assumes God s saving work in the world may be measured by outward standards of success and achievement. Like all of the Pillar volumes, Seifrid s commentary on 2 Corinthians offers careful grammatical analysis and exegesis with clear pastoral application.
