The Thorn in the Flesh
2 Corinthians 12:7
New King James Version (NKJV)
7 And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure.
- a thorn in the flesh : a messenger of satan
Galatians 4:15
New King James Version (NKJV)
15 What then was the blessing you enjoyed? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your own eyes and given them to me.
- plucked out your own eyes and given them to me : Paul was beaten previously so Paul used that expression.
- But Paul didn’t have any sickness
