The Greek adjective “ἥττων”

Limited to 1 Cor. 11:17; 2 Cor. 12:15, the Greek adjective “hetton” meant “inferior,” “less,” “worse.”  Due to their abuse of the Lord’s Supper, the Corinthians assemblies were for the “worse.”  Paul told the Corinthians the more he loved them the “less” they loved him.
