begging us with much entreaty to receive this grace and the fellowship in the service to the saints.

This was not as we had expected, but first they gave their own selves to the Lord, and to us through the will of Elohim.

So we urged Titus, that as he had made a beginning before, so he would also complete in you this grace.
7 refs

But as you abound in everything, in faith, utterance, knowledge, all earnestness, and in your love to us, see that you also abound in this grace.

I speak not by way of commandment, but as proving through the earnestness of others the sincerity also of your love.

I give a judgment in this: for this is expedient for you who were the first to start a year ago, not only to do, but also to be willing.
17 refs
11
But now complete the doing also, that as there was the readiness to be willing, so there may be the completion also out of your ability.

For if the readiness is there, it is acceptable according to what you have, not according to what you don’t have.

but for equality. Your abundance at this present time supplies their lack, that their abundance also may become a supply for your lack; that there may be equality.

As it is written, “He who gathered much had nothing left over, and he who gathered little had no lack.”

But thanks be to Elohim, who puts the same earnest care for you into the heart of Titus.

We have sent together with him the brother whose praise in the Good News is known throughout all the assemblies.

Not only so, but he was also appointed by the assemblies to travel with us in this grace, which is served by us to the glory of the Lord himself, and to show our readiness.
11 refs
20
We are avoiding this, that any man should blame us concerning this abundance which is administered by us.
6 refs
21
Having regard for honorable things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.
13 refs
22
We have sent with them our brother, whom we have many times proved earnest in many things, but now much more earnest, by reason of the great confidence which he has in you.
1 refs

As for Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker for you. As for our brothers, they are the apostles of the assemblies, the glory of Messiah.

Therefore show the proof of your love to them before the assemblies, and of our boasting on your behalf.
