| Overview - 2 Corinthians 12 | |
| 1 | For commending of his apostleship, though he might glory of his wonderful revelations, |
| 9 | yet he rather chooses to glory of his infirmities; |
| 11 | blaming them for forcing him to this vain boasting. |
| 14 | He promises to come to them again; but yet altogether in the affection of a father; |
| 20 | although he fears he shall to his grief find many offenders, and public disorders there. |
