Verse 17
17. one bread—rather, "loaf." One loaf alone seems to have been used in each celebration.
and one body—Omit "and"; "one loaf [that is], one body." "We, the many (namely, believers assembled; so the Greek), are one bread (by our partaking of the same loaf, which becomes assimilated to the substance of all our bodies; and so we become), one body" (with Christ, and so with one another).
we . . . all—Greek, "the whole of us."
