VERS. XXXI.

〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, &c.
I protest by your rejoycing, which I have, &c.

THAT which the Apostle asserts is this, that he died daily; that is, was trod upon, suffered contempt, underwent danger, expected death. And that this is so, I ap∣peal, saith he, to your boasting, O ye Corinthians. But in what sense is that boasting to be understood? Not the Apostles boasting of them: for then it would more properly have been said 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, Our boasting, than 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, Your. Nor was there in∣deed any reason, as things then stood, why the Apostle should boast of them. Nor is their boasting in the Apostle to be understood: for alas! how did they too much under∣value him! The boasting therefore that he hints, was their boasting against him and this is it that he calls upon, and appeals to. Every day, saith he, I dye, I am despised, trod up∣on, am in hazzard: and for witness of this I call and appeal to your very boasting against me: which indeed I reckon for my boasting in Jesus Christ. It became not you to glory against me; but since ye do it, I glory in this very contempt, and reproach.
