2 Corinthians 11:20 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

For ye suffer — Not only the folly, but the gross abuses, of those false apostles. If a man enslave you — Lord it over you in the most arbitrary manner. If he devour you — By his exorbitant demands; not — withstanding his boast of not being burdensome. If he take from you — By open violence. If he exalt himself — By the most unbounded self — commendation. If he smite you on the face — (A very possible case,) under pretence of divine zeal.

2 Corinthians 11:20

20 For ye suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take of you, if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face.
