Substance Overall‚ it is this author’s opinion that Anyabwile was successful in providing a clear exposition of 2 Corinthians 12:5-10. However‚ this author was unsure of Anyabwile’s primary theme.

My bible passage was 2 Corinthians‚ verses 11.1 through 15. Before doing more in depth research on this passage‚ I thought the clear message was that Paul was okay with boasting to the apostles‚ because he had done many things to prove himself to the apostles. However‚ after reading my passage thoroughly and doing much more research‚ I have come to the conclusion that 2 Corinthians 11.1-15 is only fully clear when one takes into account the hardships Paul has been through‚ and how humble he is despite
