Matthew Poole and continuators on 2 Corinthians 6:9

9 As unknown , and yet well known : as dying, and behold we live : as chastened, and not killed :

Dealt with by Jews and Heathens, as persons wholly unknown to them, though we be sufficiently known.

Or being such whom the World knoweth not, as to our state towards God, and interest in him, though it knows us well enough as to our other circumstances.

So hunted and persecuted, as that we appear every day dying; yet such hath been the Power of Gods Providence, that we yet live: And

though our heavenly Father chasteneth us, yet we are not utterly consumed; the Apostle alludeth to that, Psal. 118.18. The Lord hath chastened me sore, but he hath not given me over to death.
