These things — Mentioned, 1 Corinthians 1:10, &c. I have by a very obvious figure transferred to myself and Apollos — And Cephas, instead of naming those particular preachers at Corinth, to whom ye are so fondly attached. That ye may learn by us — From what has been said concerning us, who, however eminent we are, are mere instruments in God's hand. Not to think of any man above what is here written — Or above what scripture warrants. 1 Corinthians 3:7

6 And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another.
