Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - 1 Corinthians 15:1-58

1 Corinthians 15:1-2 . I declare unto you the gospel by which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you. We have here an epitome of the whole gospel, comprising essentially the death of Christ as a sacrifice for sin, and his triumphant resurrection from the dead; these are truths which lie at the foundation of all human hope. The promise of salvation so often repeated to sincere and faithful souls, must always be kept in view. Mark 16:16. Romans 1:16. What consolation... read more

1 Corinthians 15:30-34And why stand we in Jeopardy every hour?The hourly jeopardy: the daily deathWe have now reached the second of St. Paul’s argumenta ad hominem. The first is the argument for the resurrection from the baptism of the dead. The second is the argument which he derives from his perils and sufferings. Admit that his hope would not make him ashamed, and his career was noble and heroic: deny it, and his career was a senseless bravado. Good trees do not spring from evil roots.... read more

1 Corinthians 15:33Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.Self-deceptionOf all species of deception, self-deception is the most detrimental; it is like having a traitor in the fortress who betrays his country to an enemy. Be not deceived--I. By a corrupt heart. An eminent man said once, “Paris is France”; it is more correct to say, “The heart is the man”; “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.” The seed contains the future flower, the small acorn the majestic oak, the egg... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - 1 Corinthians 15:33

33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners. Ver. 33. Evil communication ] Evil words are not wind, as most imagine, but the devil’s drivel, that leaves a foul stain upon the speaker, and often sets the like upon the hearer. Shun obscene borborology (filthy talk) (saith one) and unsavoury speeches; thou losest so much of thine honesty and piety as thou admittest evil into thy tongue. read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 15:29-34

4. The devastating result of a no-resurrection upon all our Christian hopes and activities, 1 Corinthians 15:29-34. Paul resumes suddenly, and continues, the train of thought interrupted at 1 Corinthians 15:19 by the apocalypse of 1 Corinthians 15:20-28. In 1 Corinthians 15:12-19 he had argued that the no-resurrection doctrine contradicts Christianity; he now (1 Corinthians 15:29-34) shows how it blights all Christian hope and destroys all Christian heroism. read more

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 15:33

33. Paul now flings out some words of warning against the demoralizing influence of the men who are among them insinuating the non-existence of any human future. Deceived Beware of error, for evil intercourses, intimacies, corrupt good morals, rather than manners. Bad principles produce bad characters and conduct. The belief that we live but for this world will seduce us into sin. read more
