Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 1:11

For it hath been signified unto me concerning you, my brethren, by them that are of the household of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.The household of Chloe ... It is generally assumed by commentators that Chloe was a respected member of the church, and Metz expressed confidence that she was "a woman of character and good standing";[10] but it should be noted that it was not Chloe who gave Paul the information regarding Corinth, but her "household," a term usually applied in the New... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 1:12

Now this I mean, that each of you saith. I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.Are there three sinful parties in view in this passage, or four? Despite the numerous opinions to the effect that "I of Christ" denotes a sinful division no less than the other slogans, this student cannot agree that there was ever anything wrong with a follower of the Lord claiming to be "of Christ." The glib assertions of many to the effect that the Christ party was a self-righteous... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 1:13

Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized into the name of Paul?In Paul's dealing with the parties, it should be discerned that this triple question was designed to expose and correct the sin of the three groups glorying in people, but they do not cast the slightest reflection upon those who were "of Christ," who could have given the proper response to Paul's question. The other three groups, however, would have been forced to confess that neither Paul, Apollos, or... read more

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

1 Corinthians 1:11. Which are of the house of Chloe— Grotius supposes Fortunatus and Achaicus mentioned ch. 1Co 16:17 to have been her sons. We may observe, that St. Paul uses twice, in the compass of this and the preceding verse, the word brethren, as a term of union and friendship, in order to put an end to their divisions. read more

1 Corinthians 1:12. Now this I say, &c.— I mean that one or other of you says, &c. Chrysostom and Augustin place a full stop at Cephas.—But the next clause may stand in opposition to all the others. "Some or other of you saith, I am of Paul, I of Apollos, and I of Cephas:—but I am of Christ; 1 Corinthians 1:13 and is Christ divided?" See Beza and Bengelius. read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - 1 Corinthians 1:13

1 Corinthians 1:13. Was Paul crucified for you?— As if he had said, "Are your obligations to me equal or comparable to those which you are under to our common Master? To him who died for us upon the cross?" He mentions himself, as it was least invidious to do so; though the application was equally just as to every other instance. See ch. 1Co 3:6 the word εις, rendered in, properly signifies into: so the French translate it here. The phrase βαπτισθηναι εις, —to be baptized into any one's name,... read more

11. ( :-). by them . . . of . . . house of Chloe—They seem to have been alike in the confidence of Paul and of the Corinthians. The Corinthians "wrote" to the apostle (1 Corinthians 7:1), consulting him concerning certain points; marriage, the eating of things offered to idols, the decorum to be observed by women in religious assemblies. But they said not a syllable about the enormities and disorders that had crept in among them. That information reached Paul by other quarters. Hence his... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - 1 Corinthians 1:12

12. this I say—this is what I mean in saying "contentions" ( :-). every one of you saith—Ye say severally, "glorying in men" (1 Corinthians 1:31; 1 Corinthians 3:21; 1 Corinthians 3:22), one, I am of Paul; another, I am of Apollos, c. Not that they formed definite parties, but they individually betrayed the spirit of party in contentions under the name of different favorite teachers. Paul will not allow himself to be flattered even by those who made his name their party cry, so as to connive at... read more

13. Is Christ divided?—into various parts (one under one leader, another under another) [ALFORD]. The unity of His body is not to be cut in pieces, as if all did not belong to Him, the One Head. was Paul crucified for you?—In the Greek the interrogation implies that a strong negative answer is expected: "Was it Paul (surely you will not say so) that was crucified for you?" In the former question the majesty of "CHRIST" (the Anointed One of God) implies the impossibility of His being "divided."... read more
