2 Corinthians 2:11

11 Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.

Ver. 11. Lest Satan ] That wily merchant, that greedy bloodsucker, that devoureth not widows’ houses, but most men’s souls, see 2 Corinthians 2:7 . πλεονεκτηθωμεν .

For we are not ignorant ] He is but a titular Christian that hath not personal experience of Satan’s stratagems, νοηματα , his set and composed machinations, his artificially moulded methods, his plots, darts, depths, whereby he outwitted our first parents, and fits us a penny’s worth still, as he sees reason.
