Exegesis
The standard of action is specified by kata tēn exousian {κατὰ τὴν ἐξουσίαν | katá tḕn exousí-an} ‘according to the authority’, and the relative clause hēn ho kyrios edōken moi {ἣν ὁ κύριος ἔδωκέν μοι | hēn ho ký-ri-os é-dō-ken moi} ‘which the Lord gave me’ roots this authority in divine commission.
In context — 2 Corinthians 13:10
For this reason, I am writing these matters in my absence, so that when I am present I may refrain from severe action, according to the authority which the Lord has entrusted to me for edification rather than destruction.
