2 Corinthians 4:11 - Exposition

For Jesus' sake. St. Paul, as Bengel says, constantly thus repeats the name of Jesus, as one who felt its sweetness. The verse contains a reassertion and amplification of what he has just said. In our mortal flesh . This is added almost by way of climax. The life of Jesus is manifested, not only "in our body, " but even by way of triumph in its lowest and poorest element. God manifests life in our dying, and death in our living (Alford).
