ACTS 20:19 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“Serving the Lord with all humility of mind, and with many tears, and temptations, which befell me by the lying in wait of the Jews:”
'I served the Lord with great humility and with tears and with trials that came upon me through the plots of the Jews' — The triad—humility (tapeinophrosyne), tears, and trials (peirasmos)—depicts apostolic vulnerability. Tears (dakrya) suggest emotional investment; trials through Jewish opposition persist despite Gentile expansion.
