1 Corinthians 11:28
_ _ examine — Greek, “prove” or “test” his own state of mind in respect to Christ’s death, and his capability of “discerning the Lord’s body” (1 Corinthians 11:29, 1 Corinthians 11:31). Not auricular confession to a priest, but self-examination is necessary.
_ _ so — after due self-examination.
_ _ of ... of — In 1 Corinthians 11:27, where the receiving was unworthily, the expression was, “eat this bread, drink ... cup” without “of.” Here the “of” implies due circumspection in communicating [Bengel].
_ _ let him eat — His self-examination is not in order that he may stay away, but that he may eat, that is, communicate. |
1 Corinthians 11:28
But let a man examine himself — Whether he know the nature and the design of the institution, and whether it be his own desire and purpose throughly to comply therewith. |
1 Corinthians 11:28
(20) But let (l) a man examine himself, and so let him eat of [that] bread, and drink of [that] cup.
(20) The examination of a man's self, is of necessity required in the supper, and therefore they ought not to be admitted to it who cannot examine themselves: such as children, furious and angry men, also such as either have no knowledge of Christ, or not sufficient, although they profess Christian religion: and others that cannot examine themselves.
(l) This passage overthrows the idea of the faith of merit, or undeveloped faith, which the papists maintain. |
