Commentaries:
Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
Always rejoicing (aei xairontev). Even in sorrow (II Corinthians 11:9; I Thessalonians 5:16; Romans 5:3-5; Romans 9:2; Philippians 2:18, Philippians 2:27; Philippians 3:1; Philippians 4:4, Philippians 4:15).
Yet making many rich (pollouv de ploutizontev). Old word from ploutov (wealth), to enrich. Spiritual riches Paul has in mind as in I Corinthians 1:5 (cf. Matthew 5:37).
As having nothing and yet possessing all things (wv mhden exontev kai panta katexontev). Contrast between mhden (nothing) and panta (all things, cf. I Corinthians 3:22) and exw (to have) and katexw (to hold down, to hold fast). Play on words (simple and compound) as in II Corinthians 3:2; II Corinthians 4:8. Climax of Paul's panegyric on the Christian ministry. He now resumes the thread of the story broken off in II Corinthians 2:14.
