After I go through Macedonia Paul's mention of Macedonia indicates his travel plans, which were part of his third missionary journey. Macedonia was a significant region in the Roman Empire, encompassing cities like Philippi, Thessalonica, and Berea. These cities were key locations for early Christian communities, as seen in Acts 16-17. Paul's travels through Macedonia were strategic for strengthening the churches he had previously established and for collecting financial support for the impoverished believers in Jerusalem (2 Corinthians 8-9). This reflects the interconnectedness of the early church and the importance of mutual support among believers. however, I will come to you for I will be going through Macedonia Persons / Places / Events 1.

Teaching Points Divine Guidance in PlanningPaul’s travel plans were not just logistical but were guided by the Holy Spirit. Believers should seek God’s guidance in their own plans and decisions. Commitment to Fellowship Paul’s intention to visit the Corinthians shows his commitment to fellowship and personal connection with other believers. Christians should prioritize building and maintaining relationships within the church. Flexibility in Ministry Paul’s willingness to adapt his plans demonstrates the importance of being flexible and responsive to God’s leading in ministry work. The Importance of Encouragement By planning to visit the Corinthians, Paul aimed to encourage and strengthen them. Believers are called to encourage one another in their faith journeys. Strategic Mission Work Paul’s travels through Macedonia and Corinth were strategic for spreading the Gospel. Christians should consider how they can strategically use their resources and opportunities for evangelism.(5) For I do pass through Macedonia.--A misrepresentation of these words gives rise to the incorrect statement that this Epistle was written at Philippi, which is to be found in the subscription at the end of this chapter in our English Bible. The Apostle does not here refer to where he is at the moment of writing, but to his intention regarding his journey. He had intended to go first to Corinth (see 2Corinthians 1:15-16), but he has altered that plan, and says that his intention now is to pass through Macedonia first, and then visit Corinth. Then he says, "For I do pass through Macedonia." To this intention the Apostle adheres. (See Introduction.)Verse 5. - When I shall pass through Macedonia; rather, when 1 have passed through Macedonia. For I do pass through Macedonia; rather, for 1 mean to pass through Macedonia. We learn from 2 Corinthians 1:15, 16, that it had been St. Paul's intention to sail from Ephesus to Corinth, thence, after a brief stay, to proceed to Macedonia, and on his return to come again for a longer stay at Corinth on his way to Judaea. He had in an Epistle, now lost (see 1 Corinthians 5:9), announced to them this intention, he changed his plan because, in the present disgraceful state of disorganization into which the Church had fallen, he felt that he could not visit them without being compelled to exercise a severity which, he hoped, might be obviated by writing to them and delaying his intended visit. Nothing but his usual delicacy and desire to spare them prevented him from stating all this more fully (2 Corinthians 1:23; 2 Corinthians 2:1). Mistaking the kindness of his purpose, the Corinthians accused him of levity. He defends himself from this charge in the Second Epistle, and he carried out the plan which he here announces (2 Corinthians 2:13; 2 Corinthians 8:1; 2 Corinthians 9:2, 4; 2 Corinthians 12:14; 2 Corinthians 13:1).
