1 Corintios 14:18-40 RVA

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 14:34-40

34-40 When the apostle exhorts Christian women to seek information on religious subjects from their husbands at home, it shows that believing families ought to assemble for promoting spiritual knowledge. The Spirit of Christ can never contradict itself; and if their revelations are against those of the apostle, they do not come from the same Spirit. The way to keep peace, truth, and order in the church, is to seek that which is good for it, to bear with that which is not hurtful to its welfare,... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - 1 Corinthians 14:1-99

1Co 14 CHAPTER 13 BEING a parenthesis, showing the surpassing excellence of divine love, the first verse of 1Co 14.0 is connected with the last verse of 1Co 12.0 . Love is to be pursued as the thing of all importance, for where it is, spiritual gifts may safely be desired. Where love reigns, they will be desired not for personal advancement or distinction, but for the profit and blessing of all. Hence the gift of prophecy is given the first place. It is amongst the best gifts which may be... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - 1 Corinthians 14:14-20

Only through the understanding of the hearer does the utterance of the Spirit result in edification: v. 14. For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. v. 15. What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also; I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also. v. 16. Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupies the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy... read more

Strange tongues may become dangerous: v. 21. In the Law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear Me, saith the Lord. v. 22. Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not; but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe. v. 23. If, therefore, the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there... read more

The practical application of these truths in public worship: v. 26. How is it, then, brethren? When ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying: v. 27. If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two or, at the most, by three, and that by course; and let one interpret. v. 28. But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to... read more

Final regulations: v. 34. Let your women keep silence in the churches; for it is not permitted unto them to speak, but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the Law. v. 35. And if they will learn anything, let them ask their husbands at home; for it is a shame for women to speak in the church. v. 36. What? Came the Word of God out from you? Or came it unto you only? v. 37. If any man think himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that... read more

3. A comparison of the gifts of prophecy arid of speaking with tongues, in respect to their worth for the edification of the Church. Rules for the right regulation of their use according to their end, and according to the benefit they render to the Church1 Corinthians 14:01 Follow after charity [love, τὴν ], and [but, δὲ] desire [the, τὰ] spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy. 2For he that speaketh in an unknown, tongue [a tongue] speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - 1 Corinthians 14:13-25

Understanding Promotes Edifying 1 Corinthians 14:13-25 The Apostle here gives two practical directions, in order to restore the rule of the understanding above the babble of incoherent sounds, which was confusing the Corinthian church. The first was that worship should be conducted in a form that the assembled congregation could understand. To utter prayer or thanksgiving to which the audience could give no assent; to utter sounds which were meaningless, was inconsistent with the true... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - 1 Corinthians 14:26-40

Order of Church Services 1 Corinthians 14:26-40 Again the Apostle sums up his directions in two simple rules: 1. Let all things be done unto edifying; that is, to building up individual character, and to fitting each member as a brick or stone into the rising fabric of the Church. Hence the stress laid on prophesying or speaking under the impulse of God’s Spirit. All who had that gift should certainly have a chance to use it, because the whole Church would be thereby profited and enriched.... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 1 Corinthians 14:1-40

The apostle now submitted certain gifts to the test of love. Prophesying is desirable because it edifies others. Then as to Tongues. It was a gift that enabled men to speak to God, perhaps in prayer, perhaps in praise, most probably in both ways; its effect on the man who had the gift was to strengthen his spiritual life. Its effect on others was valueless unless it was accompanied by interpretation. The apostle declared that if he came to hem speaking with tongues it would not profit them. If... read more
