1 Corinthians 12:18 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The infinitely wise God, who hath made the body of man, and ordered all the members of the body for several uses and offices, either for the upholding or accommodating the life of man, hath likewise appointed the order in the body in which every member shall stand; that the head should be uppermost for the better guidance of the whole body; the feet lowermost to tread upon the earth, and to bear the weight of the whole body: and none must repine at the wisdom of God, which hath not only created man's body, (consisting of a variety of members), but also appointed every member its place, and there setteth it, that it cannot shift its station or office.

1 Corinthians 12:18

18 But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.
