1 Corinthians 9:10
_ _ altogether — Join this with “saith.” “Does he (the divine lawgiver) by all means say it for our sakes?” It would be untrue, that God saith it altogether (in the sense of solely) for our sakes. But it is true, that He by all means saith it for our sakes as the ultimate object in the lower world. Grotius, however, translates, “mainly” or “especially,” instead of altogether.
_ _ that — “meaning that” [Alford]; literally, “because.”
_ _ should plough — ought to plough in hope. The obligation rests with the people not to let their minister labor without remuneration.
_ _ he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope — The oldest manuscript versions and Fathers read, “He that thresheth (should or ought to thresh) in the hope of partaking” (namely, of the fruit of his threshing). “He that plougheth,” spiritually, is the first planter of a church in a place (compare 1 Corinthians 3:6, 1 Corinthians 3:9); “he that thresheth,” the minister who tends a church already planted. |
1 Corinthians 9:10
He who ploweth ought to plow in hope — Of reaping. This seems to be a proverbial expression. And he that thresheth in hope — Ought not to be disappointed, ought to eat the fruit of his labours. And ought they who labour in God's husbandry. Deuteronomy 25:4 |
- For:
Matthew 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
Romans 15:4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.
2 Corinthians 4:15 For all things [are] for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.

- that ploweth:
1 Corinthians 3:9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, [ye are] God's building.
Luke 17:7-8 But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say unto him by and by, when he is come from the field, Go and sit down to meat? ... And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward thou shalt eat and drink?
John 4:35-38 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and [then] cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. ... I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.
2 Timothy 2:6 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.
