2 Timothy 3:11 — Community Reflections

2 TIMOTHY 3:11 — KING JAMES VERSION 1

“Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.”

persecutions and sufferings that happened to me in Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. What persecutions I endured! Yet the Lord rescued me from all of them. — Paul particularizes: the diōgmoi (persecutions) and pathēmata (sufferings) in Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra tested his faith yet produced deliverance (rhyomai) by the Lord. Suffering survived becomes testimony.
