{Besides those things that are without} (ch(9372)is t(936e)
parektos). Probably, "apart from those things beside these just
mentioned." Surely no man ever found glory in such a peck of
troubles as Paul has here recounted. His list should shame us all
today who are disposed to find fault with our lot. {That which
presseth upon me daily} (h(8820)epistasis moi h(8820)kath' h(886d)eran).
For this vivid word epistasis see  Ac 24:12 , the only other
place in the N.T. where it occurs. It is like the rush of a mob
upon Paul. {Anxiety for all the churches} (h(8820)merimna pas(936e) t(936e)
ekkl(8873)i(936e)). Objective genitive after merimna (distractions in
different directions, from meriz(935c)) for which word see on 烘t
13:22|. Paul had the shepherd heart. As apostle to the Gentiles
he had founded most of these churches.
