Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

1 Corinthians 10:18

_ _ Israel after the flesh — the literal, as distinguished from the spiritual, Israel (Romans 2:29; Romans 4:1; Romans 9:3; Galatians 4:29).

_ _ partakers of the altar — and so of God, whose is the altar; they have fellowship in God and His worship, of which the altar is the symbol.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 1 Corinthians 10:15-22.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

1 Corinthians 10:18

Consider Israel after the flesh — Christians are the spiritual "Israel of God." Are not they who eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar — Is not this an act of communion with that God to whom they are offered? And is not the case the same with those who eat of the sacrifices which have been offered to idols?

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

1 Corinthians 10:18

Behold Israel after the (p) flesh: are not they which eat of the sacrifices (q) partakers of the altar?

(p) That is, those who yet observe their ceremonies.

(q) Are consenting and guilty, both of that worship and sacrifice.
