Gill's Notes on the Bible
And it may be that I will abide,.... He could not be certain what calls in Providence he might have to some other places, where his presence would be necessary:
yea, and winter with you; stay all winter with them, for the space of three months, as we read he did in Greece, Acts 20:1.
That ye may bring me on my journey whithersoever I go; both by accompanying him in person themselves, in token of honour and respect, and by providing things necessary for his journey; see
Acts 15:3.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
That ye may bring me on my journey - That you may accompany me, or aid me, and furnish me the means of going on my journey. It was customary for the apostles to be attended by some members of the churches and friends in their travels. See the note at Acts 10:23.
On my journey ... - Probably to Judea. This was evidently his intention. But wherever he should go, it would be gratifying to him to have their aid and companionship.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Corinthians 16:6. Yea, and winter with you — He purposed to stay till pentecost at Ephesus; after that to go to Macedonia, and probably to spend the summer there; and come in the autumn to Corinth, and there spend the winter.
That ye may bring me on my journey — That ye may furnish me with the means of travelling. It appears that, in most cases, the different Churches paid his expenses to other Churches; where this was not done, then he laboured at his business to acquire the means of travelling.
