1 Corinthians 10:15 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say. I speak as to wise men - The Corinthians valued themselves not a little on their wisdom and various gifts; the apostle admits this, and draws an argument from it against themselves. As ye are so wise, surely ye can see the propriety of abominating idolatry of every kind: for an idol is nothing in the world, and can do nothing for you and nothing against you.
