Context — The God of All Comfort

8We do not want you to be unaware, brothers, of the hardships we encountered in the province of Asia. We were under a burden far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life. 9Indeed, we felt we were under the sentence of death, in order that we would not trust in ourselves, but in God, who raises the dead.

10He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and He will deliver us. In Him we have placed our hope that He will yet again deliver us,

11as you help us by your prayers. Then many will give thanks on our behalf for the favor shown us in answer to their prayers. 12For this is our boast: Our conscience testifies that we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially in relation to you, in the holiness and sincerity that are from God—not in worldly wisdom, but in the grace of God.

[This verse means that God has rescued us from really tough situations in the past, and we can trust Him to do it again because He is faithful and powerful, as seen in Psalm 34:17-20.

We can also ask other believers to pray for us, just like Paul did, and trust that God will answer those prayers, as James 5:16 promises. By trusting in God's deliverance, we can have peace and confidence, even in the midst of challenges, knowing that God is always with us, as Romans 8:28 reminds us.]

Gill's Exposition on 2 Corinthians 1:10

Who delivered us from so great a death,.... Accordingly, being enabled to trust in God, when all human hope and helps failed, to believe in hope against hope, then the Lord appeared for them, and

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 2 Corinthians 1:10

Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us; Doth deliver. So G. But 'Aleph (') B C read, 'will deliver'-namely, in immediately imminent dangers.

Matthew Poole's Commentary on 2 Corinthians 1:10

So great a death, in this text, signifies no more than so great a trial of affliction; as he elsewhere saith, he was in deaths often, that is, in dangers of death. Nor (saith the apostle) were we only at that time in danger of our lives, nor had we only at that time an experience of God’ s power, goodness, and faithfulness in our deliverance; but we are in jeopardy every hour, and experience the power of God in our deliverance yet every day. And it being for the advantage of the church of Christ, that our lives should be prolonged, (thuogh we desire rather to be dissolved, and to be with Christ), we are confident that he will yet deliver. Former experiences of God’ s goodness in delivering us out of troubles, ought to increase our faith, and beget a confidence in us, that God will yet deliver us, if it may be for his own glory, and our good.

Trapp's Commentary on 2 Corinthians 1:10

10 Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us; Ver. 10. In whom we trust] Experience breeds confidence. Thou hast, thou shalt, is an ordinary medium made use of by the Psalmist.

Ellicott's Commentary on 2 Corinthians 1:10

(10) Who delivered us from so great a death.—Death in itself seems hardly to admit of such a qualifying adjective, but the words appear to have been used to represent the incidents of the death which seemed so near, the bodily anguish, the sense of prostration, almost, one might venture to say, the very presence of the king of terrors. As the word translated “so great” is strictly speaking, used of quality rather than quantity, we might almost translate it, so terrible a death.And doth deliver.—The words are wanting in some of the better MSS., and others give them in the future. They may possibly have been inserted to carry the thought of the deliverance into the present as well as through the past and the future. In whom we trust.—Better, in whom we have hoped. The verb is not the same as the “trust” of the preceding verse. The words imply that he was not yet altogether free, as man would judge, from the danger of a relapse. Life was for him, in relation both to bodily infirmities and perils of other kinds, a perpetual series of deliverances.

Adam Clarke's Commentary on 2 Corinthians 1:10

Verse 10. Who delivered us from so great a death] For the circumstances were such that no human power could avail. Will yet deliver us] Having had such a signal evidence of His interposition already, we will confide in him with an unshaken confidence that he will continue to support and deliver.

Cambridge Bible on 2 Corinthians 1:10

10. from so great a death] i.e. from so great peril of death. St Paul speaks of the liability to death as death. Cf. ch. 2 Corinthians 4:11-12. Some regard it as equivalent to ‘so terrible a death.’ Yet surely the mode of death was a matter of trifling consequence to one like St Paul. See Philippians 1:21-23. Also ch. 2 Corinthians 11:23.and doth deliver] These words are wanting in many MSS.we trust] Literally, we have hoped, i.e. with Erasmus, spem fixam habemus. The word here translated ‘trust’ is not the same as that so translated in the preceding verse.

Barnes' Notes on 2 Corinthians 1:10

Who delivered us from so great a death - From a death so terrible, and from a prospect so alarming.

Whedon's Commentary on 2 Corinthians 1:10

10. Doth deliver—The danger and the deliverance were continuous. The nervous predisposition still hung over Paul, and his life was a constant deliverance from death.
