SCRIPTURE

"Ye are not straitened in us, but ye are straitened in your own affections." — 2 Corinthians 6:12 (ASV)

Ye are not straitened in us (ου στενοχωρεισθε εν ημιν). The same figure as in verse 11. See on 4:8 for στενοχωρεω. There is no restraint in me (my heart). My adversaries may have caused some of you to tighten up your affections (σπλαγχνα for affection as in Jas 5:11; 1 Peter 3:8).
