1 Korintus 3:9

3:9 We are coworkers belonging to God. ³  You are God’s field, God’s building.

1 Korintus 4:1

The Apostles’ Ministry

4:1 One ⁴  should think about us this way – as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God.

1 Korintus 4:14

A Father’s Warning

4:14 I am not writing these things to shame you, but to correct you as my dear children.

1 Korintus 5:6

5:6 Your boasting is not good. Don’t you know that a little yeast ⁵  affects ⁶  the whole batch of dough?

1 Korintus 5:13

5:13 But God will judge those outside. Remove the evil person from among you. ⁷ 

1 Korintus 6:20

6:20 For you were bought at a price. Therefore glorify God with your body.

1 Korintus 7:19

7:19 Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing. Instead, keeping God’s commandments is what counts.

1 Korintus 7:26

7:26 Because of the impending crisis I think it best for you to remain as you are.

1 Korintus 9:14

9:14 In the same way the Lord commanded those who proclaim the gospel to receive their living by the gospel.

1 Korintus 10:12

10:12 So let the one who thinks he is standing be careful that he does not fall.

1 Korintus 11:10

11:10 For this reason a woman should have a symbol of authority ⁸  on her head, because of the angels. ⁹ 

1 Korintus 11:28

11:28 A person should examine himself first, ¹⁰  and in this way ¹¹  let him eat the bread and drink of the cup.

1 Korintus 11:33

11:33 So then, my brothers and sisters, ¹²  when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

1 Korintus 13:7

13:7 It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

1 Korintus 14:1

Prophecy and Tongues

14:1 Pursue love and be eager for the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy.

1 Korintus 14:13

14:13 So then, one who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret.

1 Korintus 14:17

14:17 For you are certainly giving thanks well, but the other person is not strengthened.

1 Korintus 14:31

14:31 For you can all prophesy one after another, so all can learn and be encouraged.

1 Korintus 15:22

15:22 For just as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.

1 Korintus 15:43

15:43 It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power;

1 Korintus 15:46

15:46 However, the spiritual did not come first, but the natural, and then the spiritual.

16:5 But I will come to you after I have gone through Macedonia – for I will be going through Macedonia –

1 Korintus 16:18

16:18 For they refreshed my spirit and yours. So then, recognize people like this.

[1:7]  ¹ sn The revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ refers to the Lord’s return, when he will be revealed (cf. the reference to the day of our Lord Jesus Christ in v. 8).

[1:8]  ² tn Grk “who,” referring to Christ. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[3:9]  ³ tn Although 1 Cor 3:9 is frequently understood to mean, “we are coworkers with God,” such a view assumes that the genitive θεοῦ (qeou) is associative because of its relationship to συνεργοί (sunergoi). However, not only is a genitive of association not required by the syntax (cf. ExSyn 130), but the context is decidedly against it: Paul and Apollos are insignificant compared to the God whom they serve (vv. 5-8).

[4:1]  ⁴ tn Here ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpo") is both indefinite and general, “one”; “a person” (BDAG 81 s.v. 4.a.γ).

[5:6]  ⁵ sn In this passage (5:6-8) yeast represents the presence of evil within the church, specifically the immoral person described in 5:1-5 and mentioned again in 5:13.

[5:6]  ⁶ tn Grk “a little yeast leavens.”

[5:13]  ⁷ sn An allusion to Deut 17:7; 19:19; 22:21, 24; 24:7; cf. 1 Cor 5:2.

[11:10]  ⁸ sn Paul does not use a word specifying what type of “covering” is meant (veil, hat, etc.). The Greek word he uses here (ἐξουσία exousia; translated symbol of authority) could be (1) a figure of speech that may substitute the result (the right to participate in worship) for the appropriate appearance that makes it possible (the covered head). Or (2) it refers to the outward symbol (having the head covered) as representing the inward attitude the woman is to possess (deference to male leadership in the church).

[11:10]  ⁹ sn Paul does not explain this reference to the angels, and its point is not entirely clear. It seems to reflect an awareness that angels are witnesses to church life (cf. Eph 3:10) and would be particularly sensitive to resistance against God’s created order.

[11:28]  ¹⁰ tn The word “first” is not in the Greek text, but is implied. It has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[11:28]  ¹¹ tn Grk “in this manner.”

[11:33]  ¹² tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:10.
