Galatians 4:14
_ _ my temptation — The oldest manuscripts read, “your temptation.” My infirmity, which was, or might have been, a “temptation,” or trial, to you, ye despised not, that is, ye were not tempted by it to despise me and my message. Perhaps, however, it is better to punctuate and explain as Lachmann, connecting it with Galatians 4:13, “And (ye know) your temptation (that is, the temptation to which ye were exposed through the infirmity) which was in my flesh. Ye despised not (through natural pride), nor rejected (through spiritual pride), but received me,” etc. “Temptation does not mean here, as we now use the word, tendency to an evil habit, but BODILY TRIAL.”
_ _ as an angel of God — as a heaven-inspired and sent messenger from God: angel means “messenger” (Malachi 2:7). Compare the phrase, 2 Samuel 19:27, a Hebrew and Oriental one for a person to be received with the highest respect (Zechariah 12:8). An angel is free from the flesh, infirmity, and temptation.
_ _ as Christ — being Christ’s representative (Matthew 10:40). Christ is Lord of angels. |
Galatians 4:14
And ye did not slight my temptation — That is, ye did not slight or disdain me for my temptation, my "thorn in the flesh." |
Galatians 4:14
And my (n) temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, [even] as (o) Christ Jesus.
(n) Those daily troubles with which the Lord tried me among you.
(o) For the sake of my ministry. |
