2 Corinthians 11:5-6

11:5 For I consider myself not at all inferior to those “super-apostles.” ¹  11:6 And even if I am unskilled ²  in speaking, yet I am certainly not so in knowledge. Indeed, we have made this plain to you in everything in every way.

[11:5]  ¹ tn The implicit irony in Paul’s remark is brought out well by the TEV: “I do not think that I am the least bit inferior to those very special so-called ‘apostles’ of yours!”

[11:6]  ² sn Unskilled in speaking means not professionally trained as a rhetorician.
