‏ 2 Corinthians 11:24

v. 24: Paul explains that five times the Jews whipped him with thirty-nine lashes. This was the maximum allowed by their law (Deuteronomy 25:3 a). The Jews never showed him mercy, but always punished him to the limit (Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one, 2 Corinthians 11:24 b).
