Suffering for Christ

22 Are they aHebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? So am I.  
23 Are they ministers of Christ?—I speak as a fool—I am more: ain labors more abundant, bin stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, cin deaths often.  
24 From the Jews five times I received aforty bstripes minus one.  
25 Three times I was abeaten with rods; bonce I was stoned; three times I cwas shipwrecked; a night and a day I have been in the deep;  
26 in journeys often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, ain perils of my own countrymen, bin perils of the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;  
27 in weariness and toil, ain sleeplessness often, bin hunger and thirst, in cfastings often, in cold and nakedness—

2 Corinthians 11:24

Five times received I forty stripes save one (pentakiv tesserakonta para mian elabon). The Acts and the Epistles are silent about these Jewish floggings (Matthew 27:36). See on Luke 12:47 for omission of plhgav (stripes). Thirty-nine lashes was the rule for fear of a miscount (Deuteronomy 25:1-3). Cf. Josephus (Ant. IV. 8, 1, 21).
