8:6 Titus would start taking up the collection when he returned to Corinth carrying this letter from Paul in Macedonia.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
καθὼς προενήρξατο
as ˱he˲_previously_began
Here Paul could be implying that Titus already began: (1) the grace, which is collecting money for the believers in Jerusalem. Alternate translation: “just as he began this grace” (2) to work for the sake of the Corinthians in general. Alternate translation: “just as he began to serve you”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
καὶ τὴν χάριν ταύτην
also also ¬the grace this
Here, the word grace refers to what it did in 8:4: being able to contribute money to what Paul was collecting for believers in Jerusalem. If possible, translate it as you did in 8:4. Alternate translation: “this gift as well” or “this gracious act of giving as well”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
καὶ τὴν χάριν ταύτην
also also ¬the grace this
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of grace, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “what you also are graciously contributing” or “what you also are giving”
