For if I make you sorry, who is he then that makes me glad, but the same who is made sorry by me?
All Commentaries on 2 Corinthians 2:2 Go To 2 Corinthians 2
John Chrysostom
AD 407
What Paul is saying is that even if he were to make the Corinthians sorry he would be glad, since their sorrow would be proof of how much they held him in esteem.
