6 Insomuch that we desired Titus, that as he had begun, so he would also finish in you the same grace also. The apostle takes occasion from the good example of the churches of Macedonia, that is, of Philippi, Thessalonica, Berea, and others in the region of Macedonia, to exhort the Corinthians and the Christians in Achaia to the good work of charity.
