In context
AI-assisted, sourced2 Corinthians 11:1-6Godly jealousy
About 2 Corinthians 11Paul is jealous over them "with godly jealousy," fearing that "as the serpent beguiled Eve," their minds would be "corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ" by those who preach "another Jesus." Such men "are false apostles, deceitful workers," for "Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light." Speaking "as a fool," Paul lists his labours and sufferings, from "five times received I forty stripes save one" to "the care of all the churches," and his escape from Damascus "through a window in a basket." 2 Corinthians 11:22 Corinthians 11:32 Corinthians 11:42 Corinthians 11:132 Corinthians 11:142 Corinthians 11:212 Corinthians 11:232 Corinthians 11:242 Corinthians 11:282 Corinthians 11:322 Corinthians 11:33
