TSNTyndale Study Notes:

8:6 Titus would start taking up the collection when he returned to Corinth carrying this letter from Paul in Macedonia.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

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]
