From death unto death (ek thanatou eis thanaton). From one evil condition to another. Some people are actually hardened by preaching.

And who is sufficient for these things? (kai pros tauta tis hikanoṡ). Rhetorical question. In himself no one is. But some one has to preach Christ and Paul proceeds to show that he is sufficient.

For we are not as the many (ou gar esmen hōs hoi polloi). A bold thing to say, but necessary and only from God (2Co 3:6).
