{The sufferings of Christ} (	a path(886d)ata tou Christou).
Subjective genitive, Christ's own sufferings. {Abound unto us}
(perisseuei eis h(886d)as). Overflow unto us so that we suffer like
sufferings and become fellow sufferers with Christ ( 4:10f.  Ro
8:17  Php 3:10  Col 1:24 ). {Through Christ} (dia tou
Christou). The overflow (perisseuei) of comfort comes also
through Christ. Is Paul thinking of how some of the Jewish
Christians in Corinth have become reconciled with him through
Christ? Partnership with Christ in suffering brings partnership
in glory also ( Ro 8:17  1Pe 4:13 ).
