Evaluating Yourself with Humility
Paul here is using irony to point out the Corinthians' mistaken belief in their spiritual wealth, contrasting it with the reality of genuine Christian humility and suffering. He also uses hyperbole to emphasize their inflated self-image, suggesting they think they have attained a superior status without the apostles. Paul's wish reflects the irony that if they truly were kings, he and the apostles would share in that glory, which is not the case based on their actual experience.
