2 Corinthians 11:1-9 (Paul's ) Fear their minds shall be corrupted by the simplicity that is in Christ ... I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles ...
1: Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me.
2: For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
3: But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in[/color]Christ.
4: For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.
5: For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles.
6: But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.
7: Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely?
8: I robbed other churches, taking wages of them, to do you service.
9: And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was lacking to me the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied: and in all things I have kept myself from being burdensome unto you, and so will I keep myself.[/b]
2 Corinthians 11:10-15 As the truth of Christ is in me ... (and Paul's warning) of the false apostles ... Satan's ministers transformed
10: As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting in the regions of Achaia.
11: Wherefore? because I love you not? God knoweth.
12: But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.
13: For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
14: And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
15: Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
2 Corinthians 11:16-33 (Paul) A Hebrew, Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, suffered at the hands of the Jews; he escapes in a basket, from the governor under aretas the king, in Damascus
16: I say again, Let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as a fool receive me, that I may boast myself a little.
17: That which I speak, I speak it not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.
18: Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also.
19: For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye yourselves are wise.
20: For ye suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take of you, if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face.
21: I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak. Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak foolishly,) I am bold also.
22: Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I.
23: Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft.
24: Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one.
25: Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep;
26: In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;
27: In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.
28: Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon me daily, the care of all the churches.
29: Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn not?
30: If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things which concern mine infirmities.
31: The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed for evermore, knoweth that I lie not.
32: In Damascus the governor under Aretas the king kept the city of the Damascenes with a garrison, desirous to apprehend me:
33: And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall, and escaped his hands.

King Aretas - King of the Nabataeans:
The exact time of his reign is not known, but it has been pinpointed to around 9 B.C. to 40 A.D.
They are using the coins which show face of Tiberius to date this era. These are Damascene coins, which were made until the year 34 A.C. This would tell us that at this time Damascus was a city of the Romans. Much of the history dating Saint Paul's conversion and his escape, as it is documented in 2 Corinthians 11:32-33, is based on this.
King Aretas was also known as friend of his People. This was part of his title. It is written in history that he was powerful, and had a great amount of influence on Judea. His relationship with the Romans was less than perfect. The Emperor Augustus was very hesitant in recognizing King Aretas as the king. However Aretas' army went with Varus against the Jews. This time in history was 4 B.C. when King Herod I died, and Herod the Tetrarch (Antipas) takes his place.
Herod the Tetrarch, married King Aretas' daughter. Her name was Phasaelis. He later divorced her and married his brother Philip's wife Herodias. She was Salome's mother, the one who facilitated the beheading of John the Baptist.
Matthew 14: 1-13 A sadness prevails over Jesus' Mission.John The Baptist's death by beheading; Herod thinks Jesus is the resurrection of John the Baptist. Jesus travels by ship to the desert
