To the one we are the fragrance of death unto death; and to the other the fragrance of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?
All Commentaries on 2 Corinthians 2:16 Go To 2 Corinthians 2
Ambrosiaster
AD 400
To unbelievers the preaching of the cross is the smell of death. On hearing the Word of God they receive it as if it were a plague from which death knocks on the door. But to others it is the fragrance of life. To believers the Word of God is a messenger of eternal life. It affects them in accordance with their faith. Commentary on Paul’s Epistles.
