The apostle makes an apology for his seeming to commend himself, and is
|
||
|
|
careful not to assume too much to himself, but to ascribe all praise
|
||
|
|
unto God,

He then draws a comparison between the Old Testament and the New, and

whence he infers what is the duty of gospel ministers, and the

advantage of those who live under the gospel above those who lived

under the law,

<FONT SIZE=+1>1 Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some

all men:

of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the

Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy

tables of the heart.
|

|

4 And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward:

|

In these verses,</P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I. The apostle makes an apology for seeming to commend himself. He
|
||
|
|
thought it convenient to protest his sincerity to them, because there
|
||
|
|
were some at Corinth who endeavoured to blast his reputation; yet he
|
||
|
|
was not desirous of vain-glory. And he tells them,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. That he neither needed nor desired any verbal commendation to them,
|
||
|
|
nor letters testimonial from them, as some others did, meaning the
|
||
|
|
false apostles or teachers,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:1"><I>v.</I> 1</A>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
His ministry among them had, without controversy, been truly great and
|
||
|
|
honourable, how little soever his person was in reality, or how
|
||
|
|
contemptible soever some would have him thought to be.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. The Corinthians themselves were his real commendation, and a good
|
||
|
|
testimonial for him, that God was with him of a truth, that he was sent
|
||
|
|
of God: <I>You are our epistle,</I>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:2"><I>v.</I> 2</A>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This was the testimonial he most delighted in, and what was most dear
|
||
|
|
to him--they were written <I>in his heart;</I> and this he could appeal
|
||
|
|
to upon occasion, for it was, or might be, <I>known and read of all
|
||
|
|
men.</I> Note, There is nothing more delightful to faithful ministers,
|
||
|
|
nor more to their commendation, than the success of their ministry,
|
||
|
|
evidenced in the hearts and lives of those among whom they labour.</P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
II. The apostle is careful not to assume too much to himself, but to
|
||
|
|
ascribe all the praise to God. Therefore,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. He says they were the <I>epistle of Christ,</I>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:3"><I>v.</I> 3</A>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The apostle and others were but instruments, Christ was the author of
|
||
|
|
all the good that was in them. The law of Christ was written in their
|
||
|
|
hearts, and the love of Christ shed abroad in their hearts. This
|
||
|
|
epistle was not written with <I>ink, but with the Spirit of the living
|
||
|
|
God;</I> nor was it written in <I>tables of stone,</I> as the law of
|
||
|
|
God given to Moses, but on the <I>heart;</I> and that heart not a stony
|
||
|
|
one, but a heart of flesh, upon the <I>fleshy</I> (not <I>fleshly,</I>
|
||
|
|
as fleshliness denotes sensuality) <I>tables of the heart,</I> that is,
|
||
|
|
upon hearts that are softened and renewed by divine grace, according to
|
||
|
|
that gracious promise, <I>I will take away the stony heart, and I will
|
||
|
|
give you a heart of flesh,</I>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=Eze+36:26">Ezek. xxxvi. 26</A>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This was the good hope the apostle had concerning these Corinthians
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:4"><I>v.</I> 4</A>)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
that their hearts were like the ark of the covenant, containing the
|
||
|
|
tables of the law and the gospel, written with the finger, that is, by
|
||
|
|
the Spirit, of the living God.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. He utterly disclaims the taking of any praise to themselves, and
|
||
|
|
ascribes all the glory to God: "<I>We are not sufficient of
|
||
|
|
ourselves,</I>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:5"><I>v.</I> 5</A>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We could never have made such good impressions on your hearts, nor upon
|
||
|
|
our own. Such are our weakness and inability that we cannot of
|
||
|
|
ourselves think a good thought, much less raise any good thoughts or
|
||
|
|
affections in other men. <I>All our sufficiency is of God;</I> to him
|
||
|
|
therefore are owing all the praise and glory of that good which is
|
||
|
|
done, and from him we must receive grace and strength to do more." This
|
||
|
|
is true concerning ministers and all Christians; the best are no more
|
||
|
|
than what the grace of God makes them. Our hands are not sufficient for
|
||
|
|
us, but our sufficiency is of God; and his grace is sufficient for us,
|
||
|
|
to furnish us for every good word and work.</P>

7 But if the ministration of death, written <I>and</I> engraven in
|
||
|
|
stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not
|
||
|
|
stedfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his
|
||
|
|
countenance; which <I>glory</I> was to be done away:
|
||
|
|
8 How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather
|
||
|
|
glorious?
|
||
|
|
9 For if the ministration of condemnation <I>be</I> glory, much more
|
||
|
|
doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.
|
||
|
|
10 For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this
|
||
|
|
respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth.
|
||
|
|
11 For if that which is done away <I>was</I> glorious, much more
|
||
|
|
that which remaineth <I>is</I> glorious.

Here the apostle makes a comparison between the Old Testament and the
|
||
|
|
New, the law of Moses and the gospel of Jesus Christ, and values
|
||
|
|
himself and his fellow-labourers by this, that <I>they were able
|
||
|
|
ministers of the New Testament,</I> that God had made them so,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:6"><I>v.</I> 6</A>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This he does in answer to the accusations of false teachers, who
|
||
|
|
magnify greatly the law of Moses.</P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I. He distinguishes between the letter and the spirit even of the New
|
||
|
|
Testament,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:6"><I>v.</I> 6</A>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As able ministers of the New Testament, they were ministers not merely
|
||
|
|
of the letter, to read the written word, or to preach the letter of the
|
||
|
|
gospel only, but they were ministers of the Spirit also; the Spirit of
|
||
|
|
God did accompany their ministrations. The <I>letter killeth;</I> this
|
||
|
|
the letter of the law does, for that is the ministration of death; and
|
||
|
|
if we rest only in the letter of the gospel we shall be never the
|
||
|
|
better for so doing, for even that will be a <I>savour of death unto
|
||
|
|
death;</I> but the Spirit of the gospel, going along with the ministry
|
||
|
|
of the gospel, giveth life spiritual and life eternal.</P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
II. He shows the difference between the Old Testament and the New, and
|
||
|
|
the excellency of the gospel above the law. For,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. The Old-Testament dispensation was the <I>ministration of death</I>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:7"><I>v.</I> 7</A>),
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
whereas that of the New Testament is the <I>ministration of life.</I>
|
||
|
|
The law discovered sin, and the wrath and curse of God. This showed us
|
||
|
|
a God above us and a God against us; but the gospel discovers grace,
|
||
|
|
and <I>Emmanuel,</I> God with us. Upon this account the gospel is more
|
||
|
|
glorious than the law; and yet that had a glory in it, witness the
|
||
|
|
shining of Moses's face (an indication thereof) when he came down from
|
||
|
|
the mount with the tables in his hand, that reflected rays of
|
||
|
|
brightness upon his countenance.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. The law was the <I>ministration of condemnation,</I> for that
|
||
|
|
condemned and cursed every one who <I>continued not in all things
|
||
|
|
written therein to do them;</I> but the gospel is the <I>ministration
|
||
|
|
of righteousness:</I> therein the righteousness of God by faith is
|
||
|
|
revealed. This shows us that the just shall live by his faith. This
|
||
|
|
reveals the grace and mercy of God through Jesus Christ, for obtaining
|
||
|
|
the remission of sins and eternal life. The gospel therefore so much
|
||
|
|
exceeds in glory that in a manner it eclipses the glory of the legal
|
||
|
|
dispensation,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:10"><I>v.</I> 10</A>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As the shining of a burning lamp is lost, or not regarded, when the sun
|
||
|
|
arises and goes forth in his strength; so there was no glory in the Old
|
||
|
|
Testament, in comparison with that of the New.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. The law is done away, but the gospel does and shall <I>remain,</I>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:11"><I>v.</I> 11</A>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Not only did the glory of Moses's face go away, but the glory of
|
||
|
|
Moses's law is done away also; yea, the law of Moses itself is now
|
||
|
|
abolished. That dispensation was only to continue for a time, and then
|
||
|
|
to vanish away; whereas the gospel shall remain to the end of the
|
||
|
|
world, and is always fresh and flourishing and remains glorious.</P>

13 And not as Moses, <I>which</I> put a vail over his face, that the
|
||
|
|
children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that
|
||
|
|
which is abolished:
|
||
|
|
14 But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth
|
||
|
|
the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament;
|
||
|
|
which <I>vail</I> is done away in Christ.
|
||
|
|
15 But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon
|
||
|
|
their heart.
|
||
|
|
16 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall
|
||
|
|
be taken away.
|
||
|
|
17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the
|
||
|
|
Lord <I>is,</I> there <I>is</I> liberty.
|
||
|
|
18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory
|
||
|
|
of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory,
|
||
|
|
<I>even</I> as by the Spirit of the Lord.

In these verses the apostle draws two inferences from what he had said
|
||
|
|
about the Old and New Testament:--</P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I. Concerning the duty of the ministers of the gospel to use great
|
||
|
|
plainness or clearness of speech. They ought not, like Moses, to put a
|
||
|
|
veil upon their faces, or obscure and darken those things which they
|
||
|
|
should make plain. The gospel is a more clear dispensation than the
|
||
|
|
law; the things of God are revealed in the New Testament, not in types
|
||
|
|
and shadows, and ministers are much to blame if they do not set
|
||
|
|
spiritual things, and gospel-truth and grace, in the clearest light
|
||
|
|
that is possible. Though the Israelites could not look <I>stedfastly to
|
||
|
|
the end</I> of what was commanded, but is now abolished, yet we may. We
|
||
|
|
may see the meaning of those types and shadows by the accomplishment,
|
||
|
|
seeing the veil is done away in, Christ and he is come, who was the end
|
||
|
|
of the law for righteousness to all those who believe, and whom Moses
|
||
|
|
and all the prophets pointed to, and wrote of.</P>

II. Concerning the privilege and advantage of those who enjoy the
|
||
|
|
gospel, above those who lived under the law. For,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Those who lived under the legal dispensation had their minds blinded
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:14"><I>v.</I> 14</A>),
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
and there was a <I>veil upon their hearts,</I>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:15"><I>v.</I> 15</A>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Thus it was formerly, and so it was especially as to those who remained
|
||
|
|
in Judaism after the coming of the Messiah and the publication of his
|
||
|
|
gospel. Nevertheless, the apostle tells us, there is a time coming
|
||
|
|
when this <I>veil also shall be taken away,</I> and <I>when it</I> (the
|
||
|
|
body of that people) <I>shall turn to the Lord,</I>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:16"><I>v.</I> 16</A>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Or, when any particular person is converted to God, then the veil of
|
||
|
|
ignorance is taken away; the blindness of the mind, and the hardness of
|
||
|
|
the heart, are cured.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. The condition of those who enjoy and believe the gospel is much more
|
||
|
|
happy. For,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(1.) They have liberty: <I>Where the Spirit of the Lord is,</I> and
|
||
|
|
where he worketh, as he does under the gospel-dispensation, <I>there is
|
||
|
|
liberty</I>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:17"><I>v.</I> 17</A>),
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
freedom from the yoke of the ceremonial law, and from the servitude of
|
||
|
|
corruption; liberty of access to God, and freedom of speech in prayer.
|
||
|
|
The heart is set at liberty, and enlarged, to run the ways of God's
|
||
|
|
commandments.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(2.) They have <I>light;</I> for with <I>open face we behold the glory
|
||
|
|
of the Lord,</I>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:18"><I>v.</I> 18</A>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Israelites saw the glory of God in a cloud, which was dark and
|
||
|
|
dreadful; but Christians see the glory of the Lord as in a glass, more
|
||
|
|
clearly and comfortably. It was the peculiar privilege of Moses for God
|
||
|
|
to converse with him face to face, in a friendly manner; but now all
|
||
|
|
true Christians see him more clearly with open face. He showeth them
|
||
|
|
his glory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(3.) This light and liberty <I>are transforming;</I> we are changed
|
||
|
|
into the <I>same image, from glory to glory</I>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=2Co+3:18"><I>v.</I> 18</A>),
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
from one degree of glorious grace unto another, till grace here be
|
||
|
|
consummated in glory for ever. How much therefore should Christians
|
||
|
|
prize and improve these privileges! We should not rest contented
|
||
|
|
without an experimental knowledge of the transforming power of the
|
||
|
|
gospel, by the operation of the Spirit, bringing us into a conformity
|
||
|
|
to the temper and tendency of the glorious gospel of our Lord and
|
||
|
|
Saviour Jesus Christ.</P>
