2 CORINTHIANS 11:8 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“I robbed other churches, taking wages of them, to do you service.”
I robbed other churches by receiving support from them so as to serve you — Paul's ironic *metaphor*: he *harpázō*, seized/plundered, resources from *other* churches (*Philippians* 4:15-16) to serve Corinth *gratis*. This *transfer* of resources demonstrates his *partiality* toward the Corinthians — yet they interpret it as *disdain*.
