{As giving you occasion of glorying} (aphorm(886e) didontes
humin kauch(886d)atos). An old Greek word (apo, horm(885c), onset,
rush), a base of operations, material with which to glory, as we
say "a tip" only much more. {That ye may have wherewith to
answer} (hina ech(8874)e pros). Literally, "That ye may have
something against (for facing those, etc.)." Paul wishes his
champions in Corinth to know the facts. {In appearance, and not
in heart} (en pros(9370)(9369) kai m(8820)en kardi(8369)). He means the
Judaizers who were braggarts about their orthodox Judaism.
