The Corinthians must take their brothers to court;6. especially under infidels. 9. The wicked shall not inherit the kingdom of God. 15. Our bodies are the members of Christ, and temples of the Holy Spirit: 19. they must not therefore be defiled. Do you not know This phrase is a rhetorical question, often used by Paul to emphasize a point that should be obvious to the Corinthians. The Greek word "οἴδατε" (oidate) implies a knowledge that is both intellectual and experiential. Paul is reminding the Corinthians of a truth they should already be aware of, urging them to reflect on their spiritual understanding and the implications of their faith. that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you whom you have received from God You are not your own There are two reasons why we are not our own. (1) The Spirit which has possession of our bodies is not our own, but given us "of God." (2) We have been bought with a price, even the blood of Christ; it is a completed purchase (1Peter 1:18-19). Our bodies not being our own to do as we like with, we have no right to give them over unto sin. The last words of the verse are not a cold logical deduction from the previous argument, but rather an earnest exhortation suggested by the solemn thought of our oneness with Christ, and the price paid by Him to make us His. The words "and in your spirits," which are in the Authorised version, are not in the older Greek MSS. They were probably added to give a kind of verbal completeness to the exhortation. They only tend, however, to weaken the force of the passage as St. Paul wrote it. The dignity of the body is the subject of the previous passage, and the necessity for its purity the sole theme of the entire argument. Verse 19. - That your body is the temple (or rather, a sanctuary) of the Holy Ghost. He has already said that the Church is a shrine or sanctuary of the Holy Ghost (1 Corinthians 3:16); but here for the first time expression is given to one of the deepest and newest truths of Christianity (comp. 2 Corinthians 6:16). Three great epochs are marked by the use of the word temple. In the Old Testament it means the material temple, the sign of a localized worship and a separated people; in the Gospels our Lord uses it of his own mortal body; in the Epistles it is used (as here) of the body of every baptized Christian, sanctified by the indwelling Spirit of God. Ye are not your own. We cannot, therefore, use our bodies as though they were absolutely under our own control. They belong to God, and, "whether we live or die, we are the Lord's" (Romans 14:8).Parallel Commentaries ...
