2 CORINTHIANS 12:2 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven.”
I know a person in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven — whether in the body or out of the body I do not know — God knows — Paul describes *himself* in the *third person*, likely from *humility*. *Harpázō*, seized/caught away, to the *tritós ouranos*, third heaven (the very *presence* of God), fourteen years prior. Whether *en sómati*, in body, or *ektós tou sómatos*, outside body, he *didn't know*. God alone knows the *mode* of mystical transport.
