2 Corinthians 3:1

Now I commend to you our sister Phoebe, who is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea;

And when I arrive, whomever you may approve, I will send them with letters to carry your gracious gift to Jerusalem,

We are not again commending ourselves to you but are giving you an opportunity to boast of us, so that you will have an answer for those who boast in appearance and not in heart.

For we do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some of those who commend themselves, but when they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are without understanding.
