Contextual Overview

⁵ Ueryly I suppose that I was not behynde the chiefe Apostles. ⁶ But though [I be] rude in speakyng, yet not in knowledge, but in all thynges among you, we haue ben well knowen to the vtmost. ⁷ Dyd I sinne because I submitted my selfe, that ye myght be exalted, & because I preached to you the Gospell of God freely? ⁸ I robbed other Churches, takyng wages of them, to do you seruice. ⁹ And when I was present with you, and had nede, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was lackyng vnto me, the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied, and in all thynges I haue kept my selfe so that I shoulde not be chargeable to any man, and [so] wyll I kepe my selfe. ¹⁰ The trueth of Christe is in me, that this reioycyng shall not be shut vp agaynst me in the regions of Achaia. ¹¹ Wherfore? Because I loue you not? God knoweth. ¹² But what I do, that wyll I do, to cut away occasion from them which desire occasion, that they myght be founde lyke vnto vs, in yt wherin they gloried. ¹³ For such false Apostles [are] disceiptfull workers, transfourmed into ye Apostles of Christe. ¹⁴ And no maruayle, for Satan himselfe is transfourmed into an angel of lyght.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Wherefore? because I love you not?.... Why did the apostle do this? why did he take nothing, and resolve to take nothing of the Corinthians, for preaching the Gospel to them? why did he determine, that no man should prevent his glorying of this, in all the country of Achaia? was it because he did not love the Corinthians? some might insinuate this was the reason of it, that he had no true affection for them, and therefore would take none of their gifts, but despised both them and theirs, and loved the Macedonian and other churches better than they. To which he answers by saying,

God knoweth; which is another form of an oath, and is a solemn appeal to God, the searcher of hearts, who knows all things, that he knew he heartily loved them; that it was not want of love to them, which was the reason of his entering into such a resolution, never to take anything of them; but it was something else, quite another thing, which induced him to it, and is mentioned in the following verse.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Wherefore ... - It is not because I do not love you. It is not from pride, or because I would not as willingly receive aid from you as from any other. It is not because I am more unwilling to be under obligation to you than to others. I have a deep and tender attachment to you; but it is because I can thus best promote the gospel and advance the kingdom of the Redeemer. Possibly it might have been thought that his unwillingness to receive aid from them was some proof of reserve toward them or lack of affection, and this may have been urged against him. This he solemnly denies.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Corinthians 11:11. Wherefore — Why have I acted thus? and why do I propose to continue to act thus? is it because I love you not, and will not permit you to contribute to my support? God knoweth the contrary; I do most affectionately love you.
