{Those parts} (	a mer(8820)ekeina). We have no way of knowing
why Luke did not tell of Paul's stay in Troas ( 2Co 2:12f. ) nor
of meeting Titus in Macedonia ( 2Co 2:13-7:16 ) nor of Paul's
visit to Illyricum ( Ro 15:19f. ) to give time for II Corinthians
to do its work ( 2Co 13 ), one of the most stirring experiences
in Paul's whole career when he opened his heart to the
Corinthians and won final victory in the church by the help of
Titus who also helped him round up the great collection in
Achaia. He wrote II Corinthians during this period after Titus
arrived from Corinth. The unity of II Corinthians is here
assumed. Paul probably met Luke again in Macedonia, but all this
is passed by except by the general phrase: "had given them much
exhortation" (parakalesas autous log(9369) poll(9369)). Literally,
"having exhorted them (the Macedonian brethren) with much talk"
(instrumental case). {Into Greece} (eis t(886e) Hellada). That is,
Achaia ( 18:12  19:21 ), and particularly Corinth, whither he had
at last come again after repeated attempts, pauses, and delays
( 2Co 13:1 ). Now at last the coast was clear and Paul apparently
had an open door in Corinth during these three months, so
completely had Titus at last done away with the opposition of the
Judaizers there.
