Willingness, Equality, and the Manna Principle
Paul urges the Corinthians to finish what they eagerly began, according to what they actually have rather than what they do not have. The goal is not to crush one group while easing another, but to pursue equality through mutual provision. He confirms the principle by quoting Exodus 16:18: in the manna gathering, the one with much had no excess and the one with little had no lack.
