Something severe happened to Paul while he was in Ephesus. Unfortunately we have absolutely no information about what this terrible experience might have been. Something happened to Paul which he describes as being 'almost unbearable.' He was in such danger that he believed that a death sentence had been passed on him and that there was no escape.
And yet beyond this passing reference and others like it in other letters, we have no idea what happened.
Despite the lack of information about the incident in Ephesus, the book of 2 Corinthians reveals a lot about the trials and tribulations, and the problems and the pressures of Paul's itinerant ministry.
