2 Corinthians 11:27

Context
11:27 in hard work and toil, 1  through many sleepless nights, in hunger and thirst, many times without food, in cold and without enough clothing. 2 

1 tn The two different words for labor are translated “in hard work and toil” by L&N 42.48.

2 tn Grk “in cold and nakedness.” Paul does not mean complete nakedness, however, which would have been repugnant to a Jew; he refers instead to the lack of sufficient clothing, especially in cold weather. A related word is used to 1 Cor 4:11, also in combination with experiencing hunger and thirst.
