1 Corinthians 2:3-5 And I was weak, apprehensive and fearful when I was there with you. Note: This probably refers to Paul’s sense of inadequacy in view of the task before him.

AUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ And I was weak, apprehensive and fearful when I was [there] with you. [Note: This probably refers to Paul’s sense of inadequacy in view of the task before him]. ⁴ And I did not use persuasive words of [human] wisdom in my message and preaching, but they were [accompanied by] a demonstration of the Holy Spirit and power [from God]. [Note: This “demonstration” could have included the evidence of miraculous spiritual gifts which Paul utilized while there in Corinth. See 14:18]. ⁵ This was so that your faith would not [have to] depend on men’s wisdom, but on God’s power.
