“Paul was afraid that if he rebuked a few he would cause pain to many, because all the members of a body suffer when one of them is in pain.”
Ambrosiaster, 4th c. — COMMENTARY ON PAUL'S EPISTLES

— 2 Corinthians 2:1 —
2For if I make you sorry, who is he then that maketh me glad, but the same which is made sorry by me?
3And I wrote this same unto you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.
