But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead:
All Commentaries on 2 Corinthians 1:9 Go To 2 Corinthians 1
Clement Of Alexandria
AD 215
"That we should trust not in ourselves, but in God who raiseth the dead "says the apostle, "who delivered us from so great a death, that our faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. ""For the spiritual man judgeth all things, but he himself is judged of no man."
