1 Corintios 12:25 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 12:25

That there should be no schism in the body.
&c.] No complaint of one member against another, as useless and unnecessary; no murmuring on that account; no tumults and rioting; no rebellion and insurrection of one against another; no dissension, no division. The use Menenius ^F5 Agrippa made of this simile, applying it to the body politic, as the apostle here does to the spiritual body, for the appeasing of a sedition among the people; is well known, and usually mentioned by interpreters on this place: but that the members should have the same care one for another;
that is, they are so tempered and mixed together, are in such close union with, and have such a dependence on each other, that they are necessarily obliged to take care of each other's good and welfare, because they cannot do one without another; and so God has ordered it in the church, that persons should be so placed in it, and gifts disposed of among them in such a manner, that every man is obliged, not only to look on, and be concerned for his own things, that he takes care of himself, and performs his office, but that he looks every man on the things of others, his good and safety being involved in theirs.

1 Corintios 12:25 In-Context

23 y los miembros del cuerpo que estimamos ser más viles, a éstos vestimos más honrosamente; y los que en nosotros son indecentes, tienen más honestidad

24 Porque los que en nosotros son más honestos, no tienen necesidad de nada; mas Dios ordenó el cuerpo (todo), dando más abundante honor al que le faltaba

25 para que no haya desavenencia en el cuerpo, sino que los miembros todos se interesen los unos por los otros

26 De tal manera que si un miembro padece, todos los miembros a una se duelan; y si un miembro es honrado, todos los miembros a una se gozan

27 Y vosotros sois el cuerpo de Cristo, y miembros cada uno en particular
