Now, brethren As if he had said, I wonder whether that which you so much admire in others would please you in me: if I come unto you speaking with tongues Supposing the next time I make you a visit at Corinth, I should address you in a variety of languages which you do not understand; what shall I profit you Who are supposed not to understand me; except I speak to you In a language with which you are acquainted; either by revelation Of some gospel mystery; or by knowledge Explaining the ancient types and prophecies; or by prophesying Foretelling some future event; or by doctrine For the regulation of your tempers and lives. Perhaps this may be the sense of these obscure expressions.
