Foundations for Living1 And I, brethren°, could° not speak° to you as to aspiritual° men°, but as to bmen° of flesh°, as to cinfants° in Christ°. 2 I gave° you amilk° to drink°, not solid food°; for you bwere not yet° able° [to receive it]. Indeed°, even° now° you are not yet° able°, 3 for you are still° fleshly°. For since° there is ajealousy° and strife° among° you, are you not fleshly°, and are you not walking° Iblike° mere men°? 4 For when° aone° says°, “I am° of Paul°,” and another°, “I am of Apollos°,” are you not [mere] bmen°?
