But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them who desire occasion; that when they glory, they may be found even as we.
All Commentaries on 2 Corinthians 11:12 Go To 2 Corinthians 11
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
St. Paul declares that he will continue to receive nothing for his preaching and his labours, that the false apostles may not glory in their disinterestedness; or rather, that he will not, by receiving any thing, authorize by his example, these new teachers, who only seek their own ease, to live on the Church, and to receive their support from it. (St. Augustine and Estius)
