2 Korintus 11:10

2 Korintus 12:17

12:17 I have not taken advantage of you through anyone I have sent to you, have I? ⁵ 

[2:9]  ¹ tn The word “you” is not in the Greek text, but is implied (as an understood direct object).

[2:9]  ² tn Grk “to know the proof of you,” that is, to know if the Corinthians’ obedience to Paul as an apostle was genuine (L&N 72.7).

[11:10]  ³ tn That is, that Paul offers the gospel free of charge to the Corinthians (see 2 Cor 11:7).

[11:10]  ⁴ tn Or “silenced.”

[12:17]  ⁵ tn The Greek construction anticipates a negative answer, indicated by the ‘tag’ question “have I?” at the end of the clause. The question is rhetorical.
