"Ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us" (II Cor. 3:3)—Goodspeed suggests the rendering: "You show that you are a letter from Christ delivered by me;" while Moffatt has: "You make it obvious that you are a letter of Christ which I have been employed to inscribe."

"Not in tables of stone" (II Cor. 3:3)—It may be recalled that, according to Exodus 24:12 and Deuteronomy 4:13, the Decalogue was inscribed upon two "tables of stone."
