Footnotes

  1. 125 Traditionally, “coveted.” ἐπιθυμέω 1 has “to have a strong desire to do or secure someth., desire, long for of the thing desired … silver, gold, clothing Ac 20:33.” The traditional term “covet” is not in common usage and difficult for many modern English readers to understand. The statement affirms Paul’s integrity. He was not doing this for personal financial gain.
