Out of his jealousy over the Corinthians, he enters into a forced commendation of himself,5. of his equality with the chief apostles, 7. of his preaching the gospel to them freely, and without any charge to them; 13. showing that he was not inferior to those deceitful workers in any legal prerogative; 23. and in the service of Christ, and in all kinds of sufferings for his ministry, far superior. As surely as the truth of Christ is in me This phrase underscores the Apostle Paul's deep conviction and assurance in the truth of the Gospel. The Greek word for "truth" here is "ἀλήθεια" (aletheia), which signifies not just factual accuracy but a profound, divine reality that is embodied in Christ. Paul is asserting that his message and his life are rooted in the authentic truth of Jesus Christ, which is unshakeable and eternal. Historically, this reflects Paul's consistent emphasis on the Gospel's authenticity, as he often faced false teachings and needed to affirm the genuine message of Christ. this boasting of mine will not be silenced in the regions of Achaia No man shall stop me of this boasting.--Literally, This boast shall not be stopped for me. The verb for "stop" means primarily to "hedge round," or "fence." In the New Testament, as in Romans 3:19, it is always used of "stopping the mouth." Here, with something like a personification, he says that his boast shall not have its mouth thus sealed. In the region of Achaia.--The word (klima) is peculiar to St. Paul among the writers of the New Testament (Romans 15:23; Galatians 1:21). Like our word "climate," which is derived from it, it was originally a term of science, and had passed gradually into colloquial usage. He names the province and not the city--probably to include Cenchreae. There is no evidence of his having preached in any other locality south of the Isthmus of Corinth. Verse 10. - As the truth of Christ is in me. The strength of St. Paul's feelings on the subject has already been expressed in 1 Corinthians 9:15. We have a similar appeal in Romans 9:1. The "as" is not in the original, but evidently the words are meant for a solemn asseveration - "The truth of Christ is in me, that," etc. No man shall stop me of this boasting; literally, this shall not be stopped as concerns me. The verb means literally, "shall be fenced," and with that tendency to over elaboration which is frequent in commentators, some suppose that St. Paul referred to the projected wall across the isthmus of Corinth, etc. But the same word is used for simply stopping the mouth in Romans 3:19; Hebrews 11:33. In the regions of Achaia. He would not apply the rule to Corinth only, but seems to have felt the need for the utmost circumspection, and for cutting off every handle for suspicion or slander among these subtle, loquacious, intellectual Greeks. He could act more freely among the more frank and generous Macedonians.Parallel Commentaries ...
