“And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.”
King James Version (KJV)
12:24 Giving more abundant honour to that which lacked - As being cared for and served by the noblest parts.
12:27 Now ye - Corinthians. Are the body and members of Christ - part of them, I mean, not the whole body.
12:28 First apostles - Who plant the gospel in the heathen nations. Secondly prophets - Who either foretel things to come, or speak by extra - ordinary inspiration, for the edification of the church. Thirdly teachers - Who precede even those that work miracles. Under prophets and teachers are comprised evangelists and pastors, #Eph 4:11|. Helps, governments - It does not appear that these mean distinct offices: rather, any persons might be called helps, from a peculiar dexterity in helping the distressed; and governments, from a peculiar talent for governing or presiding in assemblies.
And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it: or one member be honoured, all the members reioyce with it.
