1 Korinther 10:27

27 Wenn aber jemand von den Ungläubigen euch einladet, und ihr wollt hingehen, so esset alles, was euch vorgesetzt wird, ohne zu untersuchen um des Gewissens willen.

1 Korinther 10:27 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 10:27

If any of them that believe not
In Christ, and make no profession of faith in him; but are infidels to his person, office, grace, righteousness, Gospel, and ordinances, as there were many such at Corinth: "bid you" to a feast; invite you to dine or sup with them in their own houses:

and ye be disposed to go;
the apostle does not lay any commands upon them to go, or not go, but leaves them to their own will, inclination, and discretion; for as circumstances might be, it might be either proper or improper to listen to an invitation from such a quarter; but if they were inclined, and did think fit to go, which they might without sin; for as it is lawful to trade, so to eat and drink with unbelievers; then his advice is,

whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no questions for
conscience sake;
that is, as before, as whether it is offered to idols or not; lest either their own, or another's conscience should be hurt thereby.

1 Korinther 10:27 In-Context

25 Alles, was auf dem Fleischmarkte verkauft wird, esset, ohne zu untersuchen um des Gewissens willen.

26 Denn "die Erde ist des Herrn und ihre Fülle".

27 Wenn aber jemand von den Ungläubigen euch einladet, und ihr wollt hingehen, so esset alles, was euch vorgesetzt wird, ohne zu untersuchen um des Gewissens willen.

28 Wenn aber jemand zu euch sagt: Dies ist als Opfer dargebracht worden, so esset nicht, um jenes willen, der es anzeigt, und um des Gewissens willen,

29 des Gewissens aber, sage ich, nicht deines eigenen, sondern desjenigen des anderen; denn warum wird meine Freiheit von einem anderen Gewissen beurteilt?
