2Cor 1:14 | CPDV | STEP | And just as you have acknowledged us in our role, that we are your glory, so also you are ours, unto the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

2 Corinthians 1:14

14 And just as you have acknowledged us in our role, that we are your glory, so also you are ours, unto the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. ^{▼▼1:14The verb ‘cognovistis’ in this context has more of the meaning ‘to acknowledge’ or ‘to recognize,’ rather than to know a fact or a person. The phrase ‘ex parte,’ which occurs several times in this passage, is somewhat idiomatic, indicating someone’s role, as in the expressions ‘for my part’ or ‘in my role.’(Conte)}
