And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.
All Commentaries on 1 Corinthians 9:23 Go To 1 Corinthians 9
John Chrysostom
AD 407
Do you perceive Paul’s humility, how in the recompense of rewards he places himself as one of the many, even though he had exceeded all the others in his labors? It is obvious that his reward would be greater also, but he does not attempt to claim the first prize. On the contrary, he is content simply to share with the others the crowns which are laid up for them.
