哥林多前書 11:23 RCUVTS

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 11:23-26

The sacred feast. Paul's description is singularly beautiful. His information apparently came directly from Christ ( Galatians 1:12 ). Additional importance attaches to the observance of the Lord's Supper, since an express revelation was made to the great apostle of the Gentiles. The supper was for the Gentile worm as well as the Jewish. Its institution was associated with the preaching of the gospel throughout the world. I. ITS INSTITUTION . By the Lord Jesus ( 1 Corinthians... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 11:23-26

"The Lord's Supper." St. Paul had not been an eyewitness of the sacred incident that he here relates. Nor had he gained his knowledge of it by the report of others. He had "received it of the Lord." At what time and in what way this took place we know not, We may, perhaps, best attribute it to that remarkable transition period immediately after his conversion, the "three years" that he spent in Arabia and Damascus before he went up to Jerusalem and began his apostolic ministry ( Galatians... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 11:23-34

The Lord's Supper. "For I have received," etc. These verses give an account of what is called the Lord's Supper. This supper was instituted by Christ himself the night in which he was betrayed, while he was observing the Passover with his disciples. On that night he virtually directed the minds of men from all Jewish ritualism and centred them on himself. "Do this in remembrance of me." True religion now has to do with a Person, and that Person is Christ. In reading the words of the... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 1 Corinthians 11:23

For ... - In order most effectually to check the evils which existed, and to bring them to a proper mode of observing the Lord’s Supper, the apostle proceeds to state distinctly and particularly its design. They had mistaken its nature. They supposed it might be a common festival. They had made it the occasion of great disorder. He therefore adverts to the solemn circumstances in which it was instituted; the particular object which it had in view - the commemoration of the death of the... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - 1 Corinthians 11:23

1 Corinthians 11:23 . For I have received of the Lord Doubtless by special revelation; that which also I delivered unto you In my former preaching on this subject, in which, as in all things else, I have been careful most exactly to adhere to my original instructions. This epistle appears to have been written before any of the gospels, and it is probable from Galatians 1:17, &c, that when the apostle wrote it, he had seen none of the apostles. And that the institution of this... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 1 Corinthians 11:17-34

The Lord’s Supper (11:17-34)God’s purpose was that the Lord’s Supper should demonstrate and strengthen the unity of his people in one body (see 10:16-17), but the way the church in Corinth practised it, it produced the opposite effect. It caused Christians to break into opposing groups. The only advantage in this, Paul ironically points out, is that it enables a person to see how many good Christians there really are (17-19).The practice in those days was that when Christians met for the Lord’s... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 11:23

For I received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which he was betrayed took bread.This is the fourth time in the New Testament that the institution of the Lord's Supper is recorded. Some scholars deny that Paul received a direct revelation on this subject; but if he was merely repeating what he had received from other apostles; it is hard to see why he would have said:I received of the Lord ...

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - 1 Corinthians 11:22-23

1 Corinthians 11:22-23. Shall I praise you, &c.— The Apostle plainly refers here to what he had said 1Co 11:2 where he praised them for remembering him in all things, and for retaining what he had delivered to them. This commendation he now retracts; for in this matter of eating the Lord's supper they did not retain what he had delivered to them, 1Co 11:23 which therefore, in the immediately following words, he repeats to them again. It is very remarkable, that the institution of the... read more

It is not my own invention, but the Lord's institution. received of the Lord—by immediate revelation (Galatians 1:12; compare Acts 22:17; Acts 22:18; 2 Corinthians 12:1-4). The renewal of the institution of the Lord's Supper by special revelation to Paul enhances its solemnity. The similarity between Luke's and Paul's account of the institution, favors the supposition that the... read more
