1 Korintus 6:12
Konteks6:12 “All things are lawful for me” 1 – but not everything is beneficial. “All things are lawful for me” – but I will not be controlled by anything.
1 Korintus 10:32-33
Konteks10:32 Do not give offense to Jews or Greeks or to the church of God, 10:33 just as I also try to please everyone in all things. I do not seek my own benefit, but the benefit 2 of many, so that they may be saved.
[6:12] 1 sn All things are lawful for me. In the expressions in vv. 12-13 within quotation marks, Paul cites certain slogans the Corinthians apparently used to justify their behavior. Paul agrees with the slogans in part, but corrects them to show how the Corinthians have misused these ideas.
[10:33] 2 tn Although the Greek word translated “benefit” occurs only once in this verse, the Greek article occurs twice. This indicates an implied repetition of the term, which has been included twice in the translation for the sake of clarity and English style.
