1 Korintus 2:11

2:11 For who among men knows the things of a man except the man’s spirit within him? So too, no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.

1 Korintus 5:11

5:11 But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who calls himself a Christian ¹  who is sexually immoral, or greedy, or an idolater, or verbally abusive, ²  or a drunkard, or a swindler. Do not even eat with such a person.

1 Korintus 9:25

9:25 Each competitor must exercise self-control in everything. They do it to receive a perishable crown, but we an imperishable one.

1 Korintus 14:2

14:2 For the one speaking in a tongue does not speak to people but to God, for no one understands; he is speaking mysteries by the Spirit. ³ 

1 Korintus 14:22

14:22 So then, tongues are a sign not for believers but for unbelievers. Prophecy, however, is not for unbelievers but for believers.

1 Korintus 15:32

15:32 If from a human point of view I fought with wild beasts at Ephesus, ⁴  what did it benefit me? If the dead are not raised, let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die. ⁵ 

1 Korintus 15:52

15:52 in a moment, in the blinking ⁶  of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.

[5:11]  ¹ tn Grk “a brother,” but the Greek word “brother” may be used for “brother or sister,” “fellow Christian,” or “fellow member of the church.” Here the term “brother” broadly connotes familial relationships within the family of God (cf. BDAG 18 s.v. ἀδελφός 2.a).

[5:11]  ² tn Or “a reviler”; BDAG 602 s.v. λοίδορος defines the term as “reviler, abusive person.”

[14:2]  ³ tn Or “with the spirit”; cf. vv. 14-16.

[15:32]  ⁴ map For location see JP1 D2; JP2 D2; JP3 D2; JP4 D2.

[15:32]  ⁵ sn An allusion to Isa 22:13; 56:12.

[15:52]  ⁶ tn The Greek word ῥιπή (rJiph) refers to a very rapid movement (BDAG 906 s.v.). This has traditionally been translated as “twinkling,” which implies an exceedingly fast – almost instantaneous – movement of the eyes, but this could be confusing to the modern reader since twinkling in modern English often suggests a faint, flashing light. In conjunction with the genitive ὀφθαλμοῦ (ofqalmou, “of an eye”), “blinking” is the best English equivalent (see, e.g., L&N 16.5), although it does not convey the exact speed implicit in the Greek term.
