But as God is true, our word toward you was not yea and nay.
All Commentaries on 2 Corinthians 1:18 Go To 2 Corinthians 1
Cornelius a Lapide
AD 1637
But as God is true, our word toward you was not yea and nay. I call the true God to witness, who is a faithful and true witness, that in teaching you I did not deceive you, and, therefore, that it was not my intention to fail you when I promised to come to you.
This teaches the preacher to beware of lightness and fickleness of life, lest the people infer from it that the truth which he preaches is equally unfixed and uncertain.
