1 Corinthians 14:29
_ _ two or three — at one meeting (he does not add “at the most,” as in 1 Corinthians 14:27, lest he should seem to “quench prophesyings,” the most edifying of gifts), and these “one by one,” in turn (1 Corinthians 14:27, “by course,” and 1 Corinthians 14:31). Paul gives here similar rules to the prophets, as previously to those speaking in unknown tongues.
_ _ judge — by their power of “discerning spirits” (1 Corinthians 12:10), whether the person prophesying was really speaking under the influence of the Spirit (compare 1 Corinthians 12:3; 1 John 4:13). |
1 Corinthians 14:29
Let two or three of the prophets — Not more, at one meeting. Speak — One after another, expounding the scripture. |
1 Corinthians 14:29
(14) Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.
(14) The manner of prophesying: let two or three propound, and let the others judge of that which is propounded, whether it is agreeable to the word of God or not. If in this examination the Lord indicates that nothing was wrong, let them give him leave to speak. Let every man be admitted to prophesy, severally and in his order, so far forth as it is required for the edifying of the church. Let them be content to be subject to each other's judgment. |
- the prophets:
1 Corinthians 14:39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.
1 Corinthians 12:10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another [divers] kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:
1 Thessalonians 5:19-21 Quench not the Spirit. ... Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
1 John 4:1-3 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. ... And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that [spirit] of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
