11:16-29 Paul plays the part of a boastful fool (see also 12:11-13) so that he may present his true credentials as a suffering apostle. The intruders’ arrogant spirit impels Paul to adopt a style of writing that matches their behavior, all in irony.

according_to /the/_Lord
Here, the phrase according to the Lord could refer to: (1) how someone represents the Lord. Alternate translation: “as I speak for the Lord” (2) how the Lord spoke. Alternate translation: “in the ways in which the Lord spoke”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
ἐν ταύτῃ τῇ ὑποστάσει τῆς καυχήσεως
in in this ¬the confidence ¬the ˱of˲_boasting
