	First Epistle to the Corinthians - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is a letter, or a conflation of several letters from Paul of Tarsus and Sosthenes to the Christians of Corinth, Greece, one of the core group of Pauline epistles whose authenticity has never seriously been questioned.
		He next treats of a case of incest that had become notorious among them, and of members of the church who had sued one another, to be judged in a court of law, rather than before the saints of the Christian community, and of fornication.
		The traditional subscription to the epistle, translated in the Authorized Version, states that this epistle was written at Philippi, perhaps arising from a misinterpretation of 16:5, "For I do pass through Macedonia," as meaning, "I am passing through Macedonia." In 16:8 Paul declares his intention of staying in Ephesus until Pentecost.

		Throughout 1 Corinthians Paul appears to be responding to what certain Corinthians were thinking and doing, and at several points in his major arguments he even uses their language and slogans.
		Paul's arguments in 1 Corinthians were not immediately effective, as is evident from the continuing conflicts he had with the Corinthians in various sections of 2 Corinthians (see Introduction to 2 Corinthians).
		Passages in 1 Corinthians (11.2-17; 14.34-36), moreover, became some of the principal bases on which women were subordinated in the patriarchal family and church.

	USCCB - NAB - 1 Corinthians 15
		The problem that Paul treats is clear to a degree: some of the Corinthians are denying the resurrection of the dead (1 Cor 15:12), apparently because of their inability to imagine how any kind of bodily existence could be possible after death (1 Cor 15:35).
		His response moves through three steps: a recall of the basic kerygma about Jesus' resurrection (1 Cor 15:1-11), an assertion of the logical inconsistencies involved in denial of the resurrection (1 Cor 15:12-34), and an attempt to perceive theologically what the properties of the resurrected body must be (1 Cor 15:35-58).
		1 Cor 15:24, 28 describe Christ's final relations to his enemies and his Father in language that is both royal and military; 1 Cor 15:25-28 insert a proof from scripture (Psalm 110:1; 8:6) into this description.

	1 Corinthians
		Paul's unflattering, but necessary observation in 1 Cor 1:26, that among the members of the church there were "not many wise according to the flesh, not many powerful, not many noble," implies that most of the Corinthian believers were from the bottom rungs of the Corinthian social ladder.
		The implication is the Corinthians have misunderstood the gospel as form of wisdom and their leaders as teachers of wisdom.
		Finally, Paul heard that women in the Corinthian church were being disruptive during the meetings, violating standards of decency in their dress, and that the wealthy were humiliating the poor during the Lord's Supper by eating more than their share of food (11:2-34).

	Ecclesiology and Ethics in 1 Corinthians, by Richard B. Hays
		Paul was a planter of churches (1 Cor 3:6-9), an organizer of far-flung little communities around the Mediterranean that united clusters of disparate people in the startling confession that God had raised a crucified man, Jesus, from the dead and thus initiated a new age in which the whole world was to be transformed.
		The Corinthians have understood the gospel in terms of individual spiritual fulfillment, and this misunderstanding has led to rivalry and fragmentation of the community.
		Some of the Corinthians, confident in their knowledge (gnosis) that "there is no idol in the world" and that "there is no God but one" (8:4) have decided that there is no harm in participating in such meals celebrated in connection with pagan religious observances.

		Women appeared at the assembly without the customary head-covering (1 Cor 11:3-16), and perhaps were quarreling over their right to address the assembly (1 Cor 14:34-35).
		Certain passages of the letter are of the greatest importance for the understanding of early Christian teaching on the Eucharist (1 Cor 10:14-22; 11:17-34) and on the resurrection of the body (1 Cor 15:1-58).
		We know that Paul wrote at least two other letters to Corinth (see 1 Cor 5:9; 2 Cor 2:3-4) in addition to the two that we now have; this theory holds that the additional letters are actually contained within the two canonical ones.

		In addition, both 1) the concept of there being a different dispensation between Christ’s resurrection in 33 A.D. and 52 A.D., and 2) the concept that baptism has passed away, was totally absent from all church writings until the middle fifteenth century at the earliest.

	John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible
		This chapter contains the general inscription of the epistle, the usual salutation, and a special thanksgiving for blessings received; after which the apostle intimates the occasion of his writing, the divisions about their ministers, which gives him an opportunity of discoursing concerning the nature, end, use, and efficacy of the preaching of the Gospel.
		Ordinary or extraordinary; a detail of the gifts which were bestowed on them is made in 1 Corinthians 12:8; by which it appears that they were not inferior in gifts to any of the churches:

		1 Corinthians 16:2 tells the Corinthians to lay by HIM in Store and not lay by at church in store.
		Therefore, any claim to 1 Corinthians 16:2 as an act of corporate worship has to DELIBERATELY make Paul say what he clearly DID NOT say.
		Similar situations can never CHANGE 1 Corinthians 16:2 into a command for a legalistic ACT OF WORSHIP which must be performed or you are cursed.

		If you remember your geography you know it was located on the Peloponnesian peninsula, and the conditions under which the Corinthians lived were very much like the conditions under which we live, or to put that the other way, the conditions under which we live today are Corinthian conditions.

		He formed a church in their home and gradually the gospel spread throughout the city and many of the Corinthians on hearing it, we are told, believed, and were baptized and became members of this church.
