1 Coríntios 4:12 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 4:12

And labour, working with our own hands
As the apostle did at Corinth, ( Acts 18:3 ) and elsewhere; partly to minister to his own necessities, and those of others; and partly that he might not be burdensome to the churches; and also to set an example of diligence and industry to others; though he had a right and power to claim a maintenance of those to whom he ministered.

Being reviled, we bless;
as Christ commanded, ( Matthew 5:44 ) and the apostle himself directed and exhorted to, ( Romans 12:14 )

being persecuted, we suffer it;
that is, patiently; neither resisting our persecutors, nor murmuring and repining at our unhappy circumstances; but taking all in good part, as what is the will of God, and will make for his glory.

1 Coríntios 4:12 In-Context

10 Nós somos loucos por amor de Cristo, e vós sábios em Cristo; nós fracos, e vós fortes; vós ilustres, e nós desprezíveis.
11 Até a presente hora padecemos fome, e sede; estamos nus, e recebemos bofetadas, e não temos pousada certa,
12 e nos afadigamos, trabalhando com nossas próprias mãos; somos injuriados, e bendizemos; somos perseguidos, e o suportamos;
13 somos difamados, e exortamos; até o presente somos considerados como o refugo do mundo, e como a escória de tudo.
14 Não escrevo estas coisas para vos envergonhar, mas para vos admoestar, como a filhos meus amados.
