Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

1 Corinthians 1:6

_ _ According as the testimony of (of, and concerning) Christ (who is both the object and author of this testimony [Bengel]; 1 Corinthians 2:1; 1 Timothy 2:6; 2 Timothy 1:8) was confirmed among [Alford] you; that is, by God, through my preaching and through the miracles accompanying it (1 Corinthians 12:3; Mark 16:20; 2 Corinthians 1:21, 2 Corinthians 1:22; Galatians 3:2, Galatians 3:5; Ephesians 4:7, Ephesians 4:8; Hebrews 2:4). God confirmed (compare Philippians 1:7; Hebrews 2:3), or gave effect to the Gospel among (or better as English Version, “in”) the Corinthians by their accepting it and setting their seal to its truth, through the inward power of His Spirit, and the outward gifts and miracles accompanying it [Calvin].

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 1 Corinthians 1:1-9.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

1 Corinthians 1:6

The testimony of Christ — The gospel. Was confirmed among you — By these gifts attending it. They knew they had received these by the hand of Paul: and this consideration was highly proper, to revive in them their former reverence and affection for their spiritual father.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

1 Corinthians 1:6

(9) Even as the testimony of Christ was (e) confirmed in you:

(9) He shows that the true use of these gifts consists in this, that the mighty power of Christ might be set forth in them, that hereafter it might evidently appear how wickedly they abused them for glory and ambition.

(e) By those excellent gifts of the Holy Spirit.
