2 Corinthians 57

2 Corinthians 5:7 is a verse from the New Testament of the Christian Bible, often interpreted as a call to live by faith rather than by sight. The verse reads: "For we walk by faith, not by sight" (King James Version). In this context, "faith" (Greek: pistis) refers to trust in God and His promises, while "sight" (Greek: horama) denotes visible, tangible evidence. The Apostle Paul, the author of 2 Corinthians, is encouraging believers to rely on their spiritual understanding and trust in God's invisible realities rather than on physical or empirical evidence. The Hebrew translation of this verse is כי בנאמנות נהלכים ולא בראייה (Ki b'emunah nohalchim v'lo b're'iyah). Other relevant translations include Car nous marchons par la foi et non par la vue in French, Denn wir wandeln im Glauben und nicht im Schauen in German, and Porque andamos por fe, no por vista in Spanish. This verse is often cited in discussions about the nature of faith and its role in the life of a believer, emphasizing the importance of trusting in God's guidance even when His plans are not immediately apparent.
