Konteks2:15 For we are a sweet aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing –
2 Korintus 11:25
Konteks11:25 Three times I was beaten with a rod. 1 Once I received a stoning. 2 Three times I suffered shipwreck. A night and a day I spent adrift in the open sea.
2 Korintus 11:27
Konteks11:27 in hard work and toil, 3 through many sleepless nights, in hunger and thirst, many times without food, in cold and without enough clothing. 4
[11:25] 1 sn Beaten with a rod refers to the Roman punishment of admonitio according to BDAG 902 s.v. ῥαβδίζω. Acts 16:22 describes one of these occasions in Philippi; in this case it was administered by the city magistrates, who had wide powers in a military colony.
[11:25] 2 sn Received a stoning. See Acts 14:19, where this incident is described.
[11:27] 3 tn The two different words for labor are translated “in hard work and toil” by L&N 42.48.
[11:27] 4 tn Grk “in cold and nakedness.” Paul does not mean complete nakedness, however, which would have been repugnant to a Jew; he refers instead to the lack of sufficient clothing, especially in cold weather. A related word is used to 1 Cor 4:11, also in combination with experiencing hunger and thirst.
