Verse 1
And Timothy. It would seem, from the circumstance that the name of Timothy is here associated with that of Paul, that he did not go to Corinth, as Paul had intended, (1 Corinthians 4:17,18,) but that he went only to Macedonia, and remained there until Paul joined him. In fact, Paul intimates a doubt whether he would actually reach Corinth, in his allusion to the subject in 1 Corinthians 16:10. His primary destination was Macedonia, as is stated in the account in the Acts. (Acts 19:21,22.)--Achaia; the province of which Corinth was the capital.
