Second letter to the Corinthians 12:19

[The letter resembles a trial in which Paul has been accused and must defend himself. In one respect, the Jewish legal process of that time differs from today's trials. If the accused was found innocent, the roles could be immediately reversed. The accused then had the right to accuse those who had first opposed him.]
Have you always believed that we are defending ourselves (making a defense speech) before you?
No, we speak before God in the Anointed One (Messiah, Christ) [in his presence], and everything is for your edification, my beloved.
