Treasury of Scriptural Knowledge VERSE (28) - :23-27
SEV Biblia, Chapter 11:28 y adem�s de otras cosas, mi combate de cada día es la solicitud de todas las Iglesias.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Corinthians 11:28 Verse 28. Beside those things that are without] Independently of all these outward things, I have innumerable troubles and mental oppressions. Which cometh upon me] �h episuatasiv? This continual press of business; this insurrection of cases to be heard, solved, and determined, relative to the doctrine, discipline, state, persecution, and supply of all the Churches. All his perils were little in comparison of what he felt relative to the peace, government, and establishment of all the Churches among the Gentiles; for as he was the apostle of the Gentiles, the government of all the Churches among these fell in some sort on him, whether they were of his own planting or of the planting of others. See Col. ii. 1. None but a conscientious minister, who has at heart the salvation of souls, can enter into the apostle's feelings in this place.
Ver. 28. Besides those things that are without , etc..] Or are omitted, which he had passed by, and had not mentioned in the account and enumeration of things he had given; for otherwise the things he had taken notice of and instanced in, were things external; but besides them and many other things which would be too tedious to relate, that which cometh upon me daily , is not to be forgotten; meaning the prodigious deal of business which was every day upon his hands, through the continual coming of brethren to him, either for advice, or comfort, or instruction; and through the multiplicity of letters from divers parts, which he was obliged to give answers to; and the several duties of the day, as prayer, meditation, reading, praising, preaching, etc.. and to sum up the whole, and which is explanative of the phrase, the care of all the churches ; not of ten, or twenty, or some only; but of all of them, he being the apostle of the Gentiles, and was concerned in planting, and raising them, and preaching the Gospel to most of them; and who continually stood in need of his watch and care over them, to provide ministers for some, to prevent schisms and heat divisions in others; to preserve others from errors and heresies, and warn them of the dangers to which they were exposed by false teachers; and to animate, strengthen, and support others under violent persecutions, lest their faith should fail, and they be tempted to desert the Gospel, and drop their profession of religion.
Matthew Henry Commentary Verses 22-33 - The apostle gives an account of his labours and sufferings; not out of pride or vain-glory, but to the honour of God, who enabled him to d and suffer so much for the cause of Christ; and shows wherein he excelled the false apostles, who tried to lessen his character an usefulness. It astonishes us to reflect on this account of his dangers hardships, and sufferings, and to observe his patience, perseverance diligence, cheerfulness, and usefulness, in the midst of all thes trials. See what little reason we have to love the pomp and plenty of this world, when this blessed apostle felt so much hardship in it. Ou utmost diligence and services appear unworthy of notice when compare with his, and our difficulties and trials scarcely can be perceived. I may well lead us to inquire whether or not we really are followers of Christ. Here we may study patience, courage, and firm trust in God Here we may learn to think less of ourselves; and we should eve strictly keep to truth, as in God's presence; and should refer all to his glory, as the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is blessed for evermore __________________________________________________________________

Vincent's NT Word Studies 28. Those things that are without (twn parektov). Some explain, external calamities; others, the things which are left out in the enumeration, as Matt. v. 32; Acts xxvi. 29. Better, the latter, so that the literal meaning is, apart from the things which are beside and outside my enumeration: or, as Alford, not to mention those which are beside these. The word does not occur in classical Greek, and no instance of its usage in the former sense occurs in the New Testament or in the Septuagint. See Rev., margin.That which cometh upon me (episustasiv). Lit., a gathering together against. Both here and Acts xxiv. 12, the best texts read ejpistasiv onset. Rev., that which presseth upon me. "The crowd of cares." Farrar remarks upon vers. 23-28, that it is "the most marvelous record ever written of any biography; a fragment beside which the most imperiled lives of the most suffering saints shrink into insignificance, and which shows us how fractional at the best is our knowledge of the details of St. Paul's life." Eleven of the occurrences mentioned here are not alluded to in Acts.
11:28 {Besides those things that are without} (cwris twn parektos). Probably, "apart from those things beside these just mentioned." Surely no man ever found glory in such a peck of troubles as Paul has here recounted. His list should shame us all today who are disposed to find fault with our lot. {That which presseth upon me daily} (he epistasis moi he kaq' hemeran). For this vivid word epistasis see #Ac 24:12, the only other place in the N.T. where it occurs. It is like the rush of a mob upon Paul. {Anxiety for all the churches} (he merimna paswn twn ekklesiwn). Objective genitive after merimna (distractions in different directions, from merizw) for which word see on �Mt 13:22. Paul had the shepherd heart. As apostle to the Gentiles he had founded most of these churches.
