Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)

<< 1 Corinthians 4:16

1 Corinthians 4:18 >>

1 Corinthians 4:17

Have I sent (epemya). First aorist active indicative. Probably Timothy had already gone as seems clear from I Corinthians 16:10 f. Apparently Timothy came back to Ephesus and was sent on to Macedonia before the uproar in Ephesus (Acts 19:22). Probably also Titus was then despatched to Corinth, also before the uproar.

In every church (en pash ekklhsiai). Paul expects his teachings and practices to be followed in every church (I Corinthians 14:33). Note his language here "my ways those in Christ Jesus." Timothy as Paul's spokesman

will remind (anamnhsei) the Corinthians of Paul's teachings.
