I Won’t Stop This Boast, For It Cuts Off The Opportunity For False Apostles
10 As the truth of Christ is[a] in me, this boasting[b] will not be stopped for me in the regions of Achaia! 11 For what reason? Because I do not love you? God knows I do. 12 But what I am doing, I indeed will do in order that I may cut-off the opportunity[c] of the ones wanting an opportunity that they might be found to be just as also we in what they are boasting.

- 2 Corinthians 11:10 Same type of oath as in 1:18.
- 2 Corinthians 11:10 That is, the boast in supporting himself as he serves Christ. Paul would rather die than give it up, 1 Cor 9:15.
- 2 Corinthians 11:12 By not accepting money, Paul cuts off the opportunity for his opponents to be regarded as equal to him.

10 As surely as the truth of Christ is in me,(A) nobody in the regions of Achaia(B) will stop this boasting(C) of mine. 11 Why? Because I do not love you? God knows(D) I do!(E)
12 And I will keep on doing what I am doing in order to cut the ground from under those who want an opportunity to be considered equal with us in the things they boast about.
