- Acts 18:1
After this, Paul left Athens and went to Corinth.
Commentary on Acts 18:11 voice
Paul was led by the Spirit to Corinth; and in Corinth he had to remain, because the Athenians, despite the fact that they loved to hear news, did not heed the truth, since they cared not about the essence of the matter, but about always …

- Acts 19:1
While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul passed through the interior and came to Ephesus. There he found some disciples
Commentary on Acts 19:11 voice
Accordingly, in the Acts of the Apostles, we find that men who had "John's baptism" had not received the Holy Spirit, whom they knew not even by hearing. That, then, was no celestial thing which furnished no celestial (endowments): whereas the very thing which was celestial in John-the Spirit of prophecy-so completely failed, after the transfer of the whole Spirit to the Lord, that he presently sent to inquire whether He whom he had himself preached, whom he had pointed out when coming to him, were "HE.
Tertullian· On Baptism, 220Patristic
- Romans 16:23
Gaius, who has hosted me and all the church, sends you greetings. Erastus, the city treasurer, sends you greetings, as does our brother Quartus.
Commentary on Romans 16:231 voice
Gaius my host, and host of the whole Church, greets you. This Gaius is understood to be the one whom he mentions in writing to the Corinthians, saying: I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius.
Origen of Alexandria· COMMENTARY ON THE EPISTLE TO THE ROMANS, 253Patristic
- 1 Corinthians 1:2
To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be holy, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours:
Commentary on 1 Corinthians 1:21 voice
Why did Paul write "to those called to be saints" as well as to those who are already "sanctified" and in the church? Surely this means that the letter is addressed not only to those who are already cleansed from their sins but also to those who still await cleansing, though they are among those whom God has called.
Origen of Alexandria· COMMENTARY ON 1 CORINTHIANS 1.1.7, 253Patristic
- 1 Corinthians 1:12
What I mean is this: Individuals among you are saying, “I follow Paul,” “I follow Apollos,” “I follow Cephas,” or “I follow Christ.”
Commentary on 1 Corinthians 1:121 voice
And was it not Paul himself who was there foretold, destined "to be taken away from Judah"-that is, from Judaism-for the erection of Christianity, in order "to lay that only foundation, which is Christ? " Of this work the Creator also by the same prophet says, "Behold, I lay in Sion for a foundation a precious stone and honourable; and he that resteth thereon shall not be confounded."
Tertullian· Against Marcion Book V, 220Patristic
- 1 Corinthians 3:4
For when one of you says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” are you not mere men?
Commentary on 1 Corinthians 3:41 voice
Fourthly, he clarifies the proof, saying: For when one of you says, I belong to Paul, because I have been baptized and instructed by Paul, and another, I belong to Apollos, which shows that there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not merely …
Thomas Aquinas· Commentary on 1 Corinthians, 1274Patristic
- 1 Corinthians 5:1
It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that is intolerable even among pagans: A man has his father’s wife.
Commentary on 1 Corinthians 5:11 voice
We learn from this that there are different kinds of immorality, some of which are more serious than others. When God judges it, he will take extenuating factors into account and vary the punishment accordingly. In this case, Paul is teaching us that even when there has been a legal marriage ceremony, if it goes against the law of God, it is immoral and will be condemned accordingly.
Origen of Alexandria· COMMENTARY ON 1 CORINTHIANS 2.23.15-20, 253Patristic
- 1 Corinthians 6:1
If any of you has a grievance against another, how dare he go to law before the unrighteous instead of before the saints!
Commentary on 1 Corinthians 6:11 voice
That believers who differ among themselves ought not to refer to a Gentile judge. In the first Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians: "Dares any of you, having a matter against other, to discuss it among the unrighteous, and not among the saints? Know ye not that the saints shall judge this world? " And again: "Now indeed there is altogether a fault among you, because ye have judgments one against another. Wherefore do ye not rather suffer injury? or wherefore are ye not rather defrauded? But ye do wrong, and defraud, and this your brethren.
Cyprian· Treatise XII Three Books of Testimonies Against the Jews, 258Patristic
- 1 Corinthians 7:1
Now for the matters you wrote about: It is good to abstain from sexual relations.
Commentary on 1 Corinthians 7:11 voice
Of the benefit of virginity and of continency. In Genesis: "Multiplying I will multiply thy sorrows and thy groanings, and in sorrow shalt thou bring forth children; and thy turning shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee."
Cyprian· Treatise XII Three Books of Testimonies Against the Jews, 258Patristic
- 1 Corinthians 11:1
You are to imitate me, just as I imitate Christ.
Commentary on 1 Corinthians 11:11 voice
If, indeed, the goal of Christianity is the imitation of Christ according to the measure of his incarnation, insofar as is conformable with the vocation of each individual, they who are entrusted with the guidance of many others are obliged to animate those still weaker than themselves, by their assistance, to the imitation of Christ.
Basil of Caesarea· THE LONG RULES 43, 379Patristic
- 1 Corinthians 11:22
Don’t you have your own homes in which to eat and drink? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What can I say to you? Shall I praise you for this? No, I will not!
Commentary on 1 Corinthians 11:221 voice
The false apostles had sown divisions among them so that they were possessive of their offerings. Although they were all blessed with one and the same prayer, those who had not offered or who had nothing to offer were covered with shame and did not …
Ambrosiaster· COMMENTARY ON PAUL'S EPISTLES, 384Patristic
- 1 Corinthians 14:1
Earnestly pursue love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy.
Commentary on 1 Corinthians 14:11 voice
Having stated that charity excels the other gifts, the Apostle then compares the other gifts to each other, showing the excellence of prophecy over the gift of tongues. In regard to this he does two things: first, he shows that prophecy excels the gift of …
Thomas Aquinas· Commentary on 1 Corinthians, 1274Patristic
- 1 Corinthians 15:12
But if it is preached that Christ has been raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
Commentary on 1 Corinthians 15:121 voice
It is plain, then, that Paul knew no other Christ besides Him alone, who both suffered, and was buried, and rose gain, who was also born, and whom he speaks of as man. For after remarking, "But if Christ be preached, that He rose from the dead," he continues, rendering the reason of His incarnation, "For since by man came death, by man [came] also the resurrection of the dead."
Irenaeus· Against Heresies Book III, 202Patristic
- 1 Corinthians 16:5–7
After I go through Macedonia, however, I will come to you; for I will be going through Macedonia.
Commentary on 1 Corinthians 16:5–71 voice
Next, the Apostle instructs them about the things that pertain to himself. And concerning this he does three things. First, he promises them his arrival, saying, I will come to you after passing through Macedonia. Secondly, he says that he is about to spend a …
Thomas Aquinas· Commentary on 1 Corinthians, 1274Patristic
- 1 Corinthians 16:21–24
This greeting is in my own hand—Paul.
Commentary on 1 Corinthians 16:21–241 voice
He adds his greeting, and concerning this he does two things. First, he puts down a title of the greeting, saying, my greeting, namely is written, by my own hand, by Paul. And he did this in his letters on account of some who wrote …
Thomas Aquinas· Commentary on 1 Corinthians, 1274Patristic
- 2 Corinthians 1:1
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, To the church of God in Corinth, together with all the saints throughout Achaia:
Commentary on 2 Corinthians 1:11 voice
Paul does not always mention other people besides himself in his salutations. I think that he does this when one of his associates is well-known to the intended recipients. "With all the saints" is ambiguous. Either it means all the saints who were with Paul, …
