Insomuch that we desired Titus, that as he had begun, so he would also finish in you the same grace also. That we desired Titus - Titus had probably laid the plan of this contribution when he was before at Corinth, according to the direction given by the apostle, 1 Corinthians 16:1, etc.
The same grace - Liberality. See the note on 2 Corinthians 8:1.
