Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

1 Corinthians 1:4

_ _ He puts the causes for praise and hope among them in the foreground, not to discourage them by the succeeding reproof, and in order to appeal to their better selves.

_ _ my God — (Romans 1:8; Philippians 1:3).

_ _ always — (Compare Philippians 1:4).

_ _ the grace ... given you — (Compare 1 Corinthians 1:7).

_ _ by ... Christ — literally, “IN Jesus Christ” given you as members in Christ.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 1 Corinthians 1:1-9.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

1 Corinthians 1:4

Always — Whenever I mention you to God in prayer.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

1 Corinthians 1:4

(7) I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;

(7) Going about to condemn many vices, he begins with a true commendation of their virtues, lest he might seem after to descend to chiding, being moved with malice or envy: yet in such a way that he refers all to God as the author of them, and that in Christ, that the Corinthians might be more ashamed to profane and abuse the holy gifts of God.
