And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it:
Trabajamos duro con nuestras propias manos para ganarnos la vida. Cuando la gente nos insulta, respondemos con bondad. Cuando nos atacan, lo soportamos sin defendernos.
Los apóstoles trabajaban con sus manos y respondían a los insultos y ataques con bondad y paciencia.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the first century, the Apostle Paul wrote to the Corinthian church, a community in a wealthy Greek city known for its moral excesses and internal divisions, where Paul addressed criticisms of his leadership and lifestyle. Paul highlighted his practice of manual labor, such as tent-making, to support himself financially and avoid burdening the church, which contrasted with some cultural norms that expected religious leaders to be supported by their followers. He used this as an example of humility and endurance amid persecution, drawing from the broader biblical theme of suffering for the gospel as seen in Jesus' own life.
