NT-GOSPEL.filter - rwp disgusting:



rwp@1Corinthians:11:21 @{Taketh before} (\prolambanei\). Before others. Old verb to take before others. It was conduct like this that led to the complete separation between the Love-feast and the Lord's Supper. It was not even a common meal together (\koinon deipnon\), not to say a Lord's \deipnon\. It was a mere {grab-game}. {This one is hungry} (\hos de peinƒi\). Demonstrative \hos\. Nothing is left for him at the love-feast. {Another is drunken} (\hos de methuei\). Such disgusting conduct was considered shameful in heathen club suppers. "Hungry poor meeting intoxicated rich, at what was supposed to be a supper of the Lord" (Robertson and Plummer). On \methu“\, to be drunk, see on ¯Matthew:24:49; strkjv@Acts:2:15|.

rwp@2Corinthians:4:5 @{For we preach not ourselves} (\ou gar heautous kˆrussomen\). Surely as poor and disgusting a topic as a preacher can find. {But Christ Jesus as Lord} (\alla Christon Iˆsoun Kurion\). \Kurion\ is predicate accusative in apposition. {As your servants for Jesus' sake} (\doulous hum“n dia Iˆsoun\). Your bond-slave for the sake of Jesus. This is the sufficient reason for any preacher's sacrifice, "for Jesus' sake."
