1 Corinthians 6:5
_ _ your shame — Thus he checks their puffed-up spirit (1 Corinthians 5:2; compare 1 Corinthians 15:34). To shame you out of your present unworthy course of litigation before the heathen, I have said (1 Corinthians 6:4), “Set the least esteemed in the Church to judge.” Better even this, than your present course.
_ _ Is it so? — Are you in such a helpless state that, etc.?
_ _ not a wise man — though ye admire “wisdom” so much on other occasions (1 Corinthians 1:5, 1 Corinthians 1:22). Paul alludes probably to the title, “cachain,” or wise man, applied to each Rabbi in Jewish councils.
_ _ no, not one — not even one, amidst so many reputed among you for wisdom (1 Corinthians 3:18; 1 Corinthians 4:6).
_ _ shall be able — when applied to.
_ _ brethren — literally, “brother”; that is, judge between brother and brother. As each case should arise, the arbitrator was to be chosen from the body of the church, such a wise person as had the charism, or gift, of church government. |
