Commentaries:
Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown
Do ye regard mere outward appearance (mere external recommendations, personal appearance, voice, manner, oratory of teachers present face to face, such as they admired in the false teachers to the disparagement of Paul, II Corinthians 10:10; see on II Corinthians 5:12)? Even in outward bearing when I shall be present with you (in contrast to "by letters," II Corinthians 10:9) I will show that I am more really armed with the authority of Christ, than those who arrogate to themselves the title of being peculiarly "Christ's" (I Corinthians 1:12). A Jewish emissary seems to have led this party.
let him of himself think this again—He may "of himself," without needing to be taught it in a more severe manner, by "thinking again," arrive at "this" conclusion, "that even as," etc. Paul modestly demands for himself only an equal place with those whom he had begotten in the Gospel [BENGEL].
