コリント人への手紙Ⅰ 16:19-24 JCB

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 16:21

The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand - This should be rendered: "The salutation is written by the hand of me Paul;" γεγραπται , is written, being understood. It is very likely that the apostle wrote this and the following verses with his own hand. The rest, though dictated by him, was written by an amanuensis. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 16:22

If any man love not the Lord Jesus - This is directed immediately against the Jews. From 1 Corinthians 12:3 , we find that the Jews, who pretended to be under the Spirit and teaching of God, called Jesus αναθεμα , or accursed; i.e. a person who should be devoted to destruction: see the note on 1 Corinthians 12:3 . In this place the apostle retorts the whole upon themselves, and says: If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let Him be αναθεμα , accursed, and devoted to destruction.... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 16:23

The grace of our Lord Jesus - May the favor, influence, mercy, and salvation procured by Jesus Christ, be with you - prevail among you, rule in you, and be exhibited by you, in your life and conversation! Amen. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 16:24

My love be with you all in Christ Jesus - It appears exceedingly strange that the apostle should say, My love be with you; as he said, The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. We can easily conceive what the latter means: the grace of Christ is an active, powerful, saving principle; it is essential to the existence of the Christian Church that this grace should be ever with it: and without this grace no individual can be saved. But what could the love of the apostle do with them? Has... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 16:19

Verse 19 19.With the Church that is in their house A magnificent eulogium, inasmuch as the name of the Church is applied to a single family! At the same time it is befitting, that all the families of the pious should be regulated in such a manner as to be so many little Churches. As to the term Congregation, which Erasmus has used in preference, it is foreign to Paul’s design; for it was not his intention to designate a crowd of persons by a mere common term, but to speak in honorable terms of... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 16:20

Verse 20 20.Salute one another with a holy kiss. The practice of kissing was very common among the Jews, as is manifest from the Scriptures. In Greece, though it was not so common and customary, it was by no means unknown; but the probability is, that Paul speaks here of a solemn kiss, with which they saluted each other in the sacred assembly. For I could easily believe, that from the times of the Apostles a kiss was used in connection with the administration of the Supper; (172) in place of... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 16:22

Verse 22 22.If any man love not the Lord Jesus The close of the Epistle consists of three parts. He entreats the grace of Christ in behalf of the Corinthians: he makes a declaration of his love towards them, and, with the severest threatening, he inveighs against those that falsely took upon themselves the Lord’s name, while not loving him from the heart. For he is not speaking of strangers, who avowedly hated the Christian name, but of pretenders and hypocrites, who troubled the Churches for... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 16:19

The Churches of Asia. Proconsular Asia. There was a constant interchange of voyages between the western coast of Asia and Corinth. Aquila and Priscilla. This admirable Christian husband and wife had no small share in founding the Churches both of Corinth and Ephesus. Being St. Paul's partners in trade, he spent much time with them. (For all that is known of them. see Acts 18:1 , Acts 18:2 , Acts 18:26 ; Romans 16:3 , Romans 16:5 .) Priscilla. Most of the uncials have the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 16:19

The Church in the house. This expression is used concerning Aquila and Priscilla, who had been the apostle's friends at Corinth ( Acts 18:1-3 ). A similar reference is found in Romans 16:3-5 ; 2 Timothy 4:19 . At the time of St. Paul's writing this Epistle, Aquila and Priscilla were with the apostle at Ephesus, and it is probable that they opened their house or lodging as a place of worship for the Christian foreigners or strangers who happened to be visiting Ephesus. Some, however,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 16:19-20

Christian greetings. In St. Paul's Epistles personal messages occur in juxtaposition with doctrinal statements and arguments and moral counsels. Their occurrence makes us feel the true humanity of this method of religious communication; we gain an insight into the heart, not of the apostle alone, but of his fellow labourers and friends. And we cannot but admire the evident power of Christianity to hallow and ennoble, to refine and bless, the relations subsisting among friends. I. FROM... read more
