1 Corinthians 11:28 - Exposition

Let a man examine himself. The verb means "let him test his own feelings;" put them to the proof, to see whether they be sincere or not. He must "wash his hands in innocency," and so come to God's altar (see Matthew 5:22 , Matthew 5:23 ; 2 Corinthians 13:5 ). And so. Soberly, that is; seriously, humbly, and with due reverence.
