¶ Porque en cuanto a la suministracin para los santos, por dems me es escribiros;

Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Corinthians 9:1

Verse 1. It is superfluous for me to
write to you] I need not enlarge, having already said enough. See the preceding chapter.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 1. For as touching the ministering to the
saints , etc..] It looks at first sight as if the apostle was entering upon a new subject, though by what follows it appears to be the same; for by ministering to the saints, he does not mean the ministry of the Gospel to them; nor that mutual assistance members of churches are to give each other; but either the fellowship of ministering to the saints, which the churches had entreated him, and his fellow ministers, to take upon them, namely, to take the charge of their collections, and distribute them to the poor saints at Jerusalem; or rather these collections themselves, and their liberality in them: with respect to which he says, it is superfluous for me to write to you ; that is, he thought it unnecessary to say any more upon that head, because he had used so many arguments already to engage them in it, in the foregoing chapter; and because he had sent three brethren to them, who well understood the nature of this service, and were very capable of speaking to it, and of enforcing the reasonings already used; and more especially he judged it needless to dwell on this subject, for the reasons following.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-5 - When we would have others do good, we must act toward them prudentl and tenderly, and give them time.
Christians should consider what is for the credit of their profession, and endeavour to adorn the doctrin of God their Saviour in all things. The duty of ministering to the saints is so plain, that there would seem no need to exhort Christian to it; yet self-love contends so powerfully against the love of Christ that it is often necessary to stir up their minds by way of remembrance.

Robertson's NT Word Studies

9:1 {Superfluous} (perisson). All the same he does
write. "The writing" (to grafein) ought to be superfluous.
