As unknown, and [yet] well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed;
Note 21 at 2 Cor. 6:9: Paul was unknown, possibly in the sense of being ignored or not being acknowledged. In today's English he might say, "I'm a nobody to some, but I'm a somebody to God" (2 Cor. 3:2; 2 Tim. 2:19). He was at the point of death many times, yet he was still alive (2 Cor. 1:8-9). He was beaten (chastened), yet miraculously preserved by God (2 Cor. 11:24-25).
