Bible Comments

Wherefore, my brethren To conclude what I have to say to you on this subject; when ye come together to eat To celebrate the Lord's supper; tarry one for another With decency and respectful love, till the whole assembly be convened, and then join all together at the same table and time, without such factions and divisions. And if any man hunger Which probably was the pretence of those that were guilty of the fore- mentioned disorders; let him eat at home At his own house; that ye come not together unto condemnation That you may not, by profaning this holy ordinance, provoke God to punish you. And the rest The other circumstances relating to the Lord's supper, which require to be corrected; I will set in order Will see regulated; when I come To Corinth.
