1 Coríntios 5:4

4 Em nome de nosso Senhor Jesus, congregados vós e o meu espírito, pelo poder de nosso Senhor Jesus,

1 Coríntios 5:4 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 5:4

In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ
These words contain an account of the several things and circumstances, that should attend the awful act of the apostle, in delivering this man to Satan; it would be done "in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ"; by his command, power, and authority, and for his glory; in whose name all miraculous actions, as this was one, were performed:

when ye are gathered together;
as a church, in a public manner, in one place; not to do this business, for this was purely apostolical; but to be witness of this wonderful operation, to acknowledge the justice of God in it, and that they might fear and take warning by it:

and my spirit;
meaning that though he was absent in body, he should be present in spirit; and that the extraordinary gift of the Spirit of God bestowed on him would be visibly exercised upon this man before them all, as if he himself was in the midst of them; and this not by any power of his own, but

with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ;
to which all such miraculous effects, as this hereafter related, are to be ascribed.

1 Coríntios 5:4 In-Context

2 E vós estais inchados? e nem ao menos pranteastes para que fosse tirado do vosso meio quem praticou esse mal?
3 Eu, na verdade, ainda que ausente no corpo, mas presente no espírito, já julguei, como se estivesse presente, aquele que cometeu este ultraje.
4 Em nome de nosso Senhor Jesus, congregados vós e o meu espírito, pelo poder de nosso Senhor Jesus,
5 seja entregue a Satanás para destruição da carne, para que o espírito seja salvo no dia do Senhor Jesus.
6 Não é boa a vossa jactância. Não sabeis que um pouco de fermento leveda a massa toda?
