Discovery Box2 Corinthians 4:10-13 
Context4:10 always carrying around in our body the death of Jesus, 1 so that the life of Jesus may also be made visible 2 in our body. 4:11 For we who are alive are constantly being handed over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that the life of Jesus may also be made visible 3 in our mortal body. 4 4:12 As a result, 5 death is at work in us, but life is at work in you. 6 4:13 But since we have the same spirit of faith as that shown in 7 what has been written, “I believed; therefore I spoke,” 8 we also believe, therefore we also speak.
1 tn The first clause of 2 Cor 4:10 is elliptical and apparently refers to the fact that Paul was constantly in danger of dying in the same way Jesus died (by violence at least). According to L&N 23.99 it could be translated, “at all times we live in the constant threat of being killed as Jesus was.”
