2 CORINTHIANS 11:20 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“For ye suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take of you, if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face.”
In fact, you even put up with anyone who enslaves you, exploits you or takes advantage of you, hits you in the face — the *catalog* of false apostles' abuses: they *douleuō*, enslave; *katesthíō*, exploit/devour; *lambanō*, plunder; *dérō*, beat. The Corinthians' passive *anochē*, forbearance, enables *systemic abuse*. They tolerate *tyranny* while rejecting *apostolic love*.
