哥林多前书 1:12 CUNPSS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - 1 Corinthians 1:10-13

Here the apostle enters on his subject. I. He extorts them to unity and brotherly love, and reproves them for their divisions. He had received an account from some that wished them well of some unhappy differences among them. It was neither ill-will to the church, nor to their ministers, that prompted them to give this account; but a kind and prudent concern to have these heats qualified by Paul's interposition. He writes to them in a very engaging way: ?I beseech you, brethren, by the name of... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - 1 Corinthians 1:10-17

1:10-17 Brothers, I urge you through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ that you should make up your differences and that you should see to it that there may be no divisions among you, but that you should be knit together in the same mind and the same opinion. Brothers, it has become all too clear to me, from information that I have received from members of Chloe's household, that there are outbreaks of strife amongst you. What I mean is this--each of you is saying, "I belong to Paul; I belong... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - 1 Corinthians 1:12

Now this I say that everyone of you saith ,.... This the apostle affirms not upon his own personal knowledge, but upon the credit of the report the house of Chloe had made unto him; and his meaning is not that every individual member of this church, but that many of them, and the far greater number of them, were in the following factions, some being for one minister, and some for another: one part of them said, I am of Paul ; he had been instrumental in their conversion: he had baptized... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 1:12

Every one of you saith - It seems from this expression that the whole Church at Corinth was in a state of dissension: they were all divided into the following sects Paulians, or followers of St. Paul; Apollonians, or followers of Apollos; Kephians, or followers of Kephas; Christians, or followers of Christ. See the Introduction, Section 5. The converts at Corinth were partly Jews and partly Greeks. The Gentile part, as Dr. Lightfoot conjectures, might boast the names of Paul and... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 1:12

Verse 12 12.I say then, etc. Some think there is here an instance of μιμησις,imitation, as if Paul were here repeating their expressions. Now, although the manuscripts differ as to the particle ὅτι, I am of opinion that it is the conjunction (because) rather than the relative (which), so that there is simply an explanation of the preceding statement in this sense. “My reason for saying that there are contentions among you is, because every one of you glories in the name of some individual.” It... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 1:10-13

The importance of spiritual unity. "Now I beseech you, brethren, by the Name of our Lord," etc. Here the apostle comes to the grand object of writing this letter: it was to put an end to that party spirit that had riven the Church at Corinth into conflicting divisions. His remarks on this subject continue to 1 Corinthians 4:20 . There are two things here which show the transcendent importance which he attached to spiritual unity— I. HIS SOLEMN EXHORTATION . "Now I beseech... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 1:10-17

Divisions in the Church condemned. The formative idea of the chapter is now brought into full view, viz. "There are contentions among you," and it is prefaced by the statement of a principle, to which St. Paul earnestly directs the attention of the Corinthians, viz. "that they be joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment," or "perfected together," the stress being laid, as before, on their corporate or organic character as a Church. These warring divisions were not matters... read more

Spence, H. D. M., etc.

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 1:10-17

Divisions in the Church. How numerous these have been since Paul wrote! How many of them springing directly from human weakness, folly, or wickedness! How alien to the true spirit of Christianity, and to the prayer of Christ—"That they all may be one"! I. A GREAT EVIL . Cause of: 1. Weakness. Cooperation hindered. Strength expended in opposing each other instead of sin and Satan. Great opportunity offered for Satanic attack. Unity is strength; division is weakness. 2. ... read more
