ACC ~ 2 Corinthians 4 v10
JESUS’ LIFE MANIFESTED IN THE BODIES OF MARTYRS. AMBROSIASTER: Christ himself shares in the death of martyrs. Their sufferings are his sufferings. His life is made manifest in their bodies. Their sufferings are evidence of the fact that they are prepared to receive the life to come which Christ promised. COMMENTARY ON PAUL’S EPISTLES.
CARRYING THE DEATH OF JESUS. CHRYSOSTOM: What is the death of Jesus which they carried about with them? It is the daily deaths which they died, by which the resurrection also was shown. This is another reason for the trials, that Christ’s life might be manifested in human bodies. What looks like weakness and destitution in fact proclaims his resurrection.
