But we will not boast of things beyond our measure, but according to the measure of the field which God has distributed to us, a measure to reach even unto you.

AD 400
Paul takes advantage of his authority only to the extent that he glories in the progress of believers, so that his power may be conducive to salvation and not selfaggrandizement. He did not boast beyond the power that was given to him, nor did he claim any authority in places where his preaching had not been heard. Commentary on Paul’s Epistles.
