rwp @1Corinthians:12:23 @{We bestow } (\peritithemen \). Literally , We place around as if a garland (Mark:15:17 |) or a garment (Matthew:27:28 |). {More abundant comeliness } (\eusch ˆmosun ˆn perissoteran \). One need only mention the mother 's womb and the mother 's breast to see the force of Paul 's argument here . The word , common in old Greek , from \eusch ˆm “n \ (\eu \, well , \sch ˆma \, figure ), here only in N .T . One may think of the coal-miner who digs under the earth for the coal to keep us warm in winter . Songs :\asch ˆm “n \ (deformed , uncomely ), old word , here only in N .T ., but see strkjv @7:36 | for \asch ˆmone “\.
