Charles Spurgeon Commentary 2 Corinthians 1:3-4

"Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort; who comforteth us in all our affliction, that we may be able to comfort them that are in any affliction, through the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God." — 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 (ASV)

Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.

Nothing less, then, shall be given to the tried people of God than that same comfort which was enjoyed by the Apostle Paul; it shall be shared by all who are resting where Paul rested.
