Commentary on 2 Corinthians 8:22

Theological / Devotional

Our brother. It is no more possible to identify this companion of Titus than the one of verse 18. However, some have suggested Tychicus, who was a member of the delegation that accompanied Paul to Jerusalem with the contribution (Acts 20:4). Elsewhere Paul speaks of Tychicus as a “beloved brother and faithful minister” (Ephesians 6:21; Colossians 4:7). Paul considered Tychicus as one of his most trusted messengers, and later sent him upon various important missions (2 Timothy 4:12; Titus 3:12).
