Why do we also stand in jeopardy every hour?

'Why do we' -Paul and his companions.

'stand in jeopardy every hour? -'in danger every hour' (NASV); 'Why do. put my life to hazard every hour' (Con); 'Why also do we apostles take such risks every hour' (Wey) (1 Corinthians 4:9; 2 Corinthians 4:8; 2 Corinthians 11:23 ff)

'As he will detail on more than one occasion, his apostolic ministry was. constant round of hardship and danger of all kinds. The emphasis here is on its continual (="every hour") dangers..for which the next two verses serve as commentary. His point, of course, is that he is indeed crazy to put his life in constant jeopardy for the sake of others, if neither he nor they have hope in the resurrection.' (Fee p. 768)

'He was never out of danger from Damascus to the last visit to Rome.' (Robertson p. 193)
