Reading Corinthians reminds me of the description of Paul in “The Acts of Paul and Thecla”

“A man small of stature, with a bald head and crooked legs, in a good state of body, with eyebrows meeting and nose somewhat hooked, full of friendliness; for now he appeared like a man, and now he had the face of an angel.”

With his spiritual power I am quick to imagine Paul with a great physical countenance, but this is that same confusion of the power of this world with the power of God.
