People's Commentary (NT)
1 Corinthians 4:9
God hath set forth us the apostles last. In contrast with them,
the state of the apostles is given. The figure is drawn from the Roman
amphitheater. At "last", near the close of the games, gladiators doomed
to die were led forth and shown to the spectators, then stripped of all
armor, and exposed naked to the attack of others.
We are made a spectacle unto the world. So the apostles were doomed
to reproach, suffering and to death.
