1 Corinthians 14:27
_ _ let it be by two — at each time, in one assembly; not more than two or three might speak with tongues at each meeting.
_ _ by course — in turns.
_ _ let one interpret — one who has the gift of interpreting tongues; and not more than one. |
1 Corinthians 14:27
By two or three at most — Let not above two or three speak at one meeting. And that by course — That is, one after another. And let one interpret — Either himself, 1 Corinthians 14:13; or, if he have not the gift, some other, into the vulgar tongue. It seems, the gift of tongues was an instantaneous knowledge of a tongue till then unknown, which he that received it could afterwards speak when he thought fit, without any new miracle. |
1 Corinthians 14:27

(13) The manner how to use the gift of tongues. It may be lawful for one or two, or at the most for three, to use the gift of tongues, one after another in an assembly, so that there is someone to expound their utterances. But if there are none to expound, let him that has the gift speak to himself alone. |
