A Commentary on the Book of First Corinthians (Volume 2)

By James Thomas Lee Jr and Mr. James Thomas Lee Jr.

In the first four chapters of this first Bible-recorded letter to the church in Corinth, which was obviously not conveniently divided into four easy-to-read chapters, Paul had talked about a division in the church that he had learned about from either Chloe or from a person in Chloe's household. Then in the next four chapters of the first volume of this commentary on the book of First Corinthians, he had talked about fornication in the church, taking a brother or sister in the Lord to court, to marry or not to marry, and the Christian position on eating meats that had been offered to idols.

In the last eight chapters of First Corinthians, which are discussed in this second volume of this commentary on First Corinthians, Paul talked about many more things. In chapter nine, he defended his position as an apostle. Critics had claimed that he was not like the other apostles, that he had not seen Jesus, and that he was antisocial and unmarried. In chapter ten, he talked about Jesus being the spiritual rock from which the children of Israel had drunk when Moses struck the rock. In chapter eleven, he talked about head coverings and the church's abuse of the Lord's Supper.

In chapter twelve, he talked about spiritual gifts. In chapter thirteen, he talked about having godly love as the greatest gift. In chapter fourteen, he talked about speaking in tongues. In chapter fifteen, he talked about the resurrection of the dead. In chapter sixteen, he concluded the chapter and his first Bible-recorded letter to the Corinthian church with some general directions. So those final eight chapters, beginning with chapter nine, will be discussed in the following pages of this text.

There is one note, however, to be made before ending this introduction with respect to the organization of this text. Something that the reader might find useful is boxes throughout that show the different passages that are being referenced at the times and in the places where they are being referenced. That way, he or she will not have to jump all over the place or get into or out of the scriptures to locate a particular reference. Hopefully that inclusion will help the reader in trying to understand the various events and to also put them into their right and proper context. So it is hoped that that will make this book easier to read and that the Lord will receive the praise, honor, and glory that He rightfully deserves.
