2 Corintios 6:5

5 Fuimos golpeados, encarcelados, enfrentamos a turbas enfurecidas, trabajamos hasta quedar exhaustos, aguantamos noches sin dormir y pasamos hambre.

2 Corintios 6:5 Meaning and Commentary

2 Corinthians 6:5

In stripes
As the Apostle Paul particularly was, who was thrice beaten with rods, and five times scourged by the Jews with the scourge of forty stripes save one.

In imprisonments;
under which are included bonds, in which they often were for the Gospel of Christ:

in tumults;
and uproars of the people, when their lives were frequently in imminent danger: or "in tossings to and fro"; being drove from place to place through the fury of their enemies;

in labours;
in a laborious ministry of the word, and administration of ordinances; or by labouring with their own hands to supply their necessities:

in watchings;
being obliged to work night and day at their hand labour, and in preaching, praying, and singing psalms; which exercises they were often employed in at midnight:

in fastings;
by which are meant not voluntary, but involuntary ones, through want of food to eat.

2 Corintios 6:5 In-Context

3 Dificultades y privaciones de Pablo
Vivimos de tal manera que nadie tropezará a causa de nosotros, y nadie encontrará ninguna falta en nuestro ministerio.

4 En todo lo que hacemos, demostramos que somos verdaderos ministros de Dios. Con paciencia soportamos dificultades y privaciones y calamidades de toda índole.

5 Fuimos golpeados, encarcelados, enfrentamos a turbas enfurecidas, trabajamos hasta quedar exhaustos, aguantamos noches sin dormir y pasamos hambre.

6 Demostramos lo que somos por nuestra pureza, nuestro entendimiento, nuestra paciencia, nuestra bondad, por el Espíritu Santo que está dentro de nosotros
y por nuestro amor sincero.

7 Con fidelidad predicamos la verdad. El poder de Dios actúa en nosotros. Usamos las armas de la justicia con la mano derecha para atacar y con la izquierda para defender.
