<p>11:31 <em>The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, He who is blessed for always, knows that I do not lie to you</em>- The Corinthians considered Paul to be a liar, hence his frequent protestations that he is speaking the truth before God. Judaism spoke of God as the ever blessed One, but Paul here makes it clear that this title is true through His being the Father of the Lord Jesus, through whom His blessings are now articulated to men.</p>
