1 Corinzi 11:30

30 Per questa cagione molti fra voi sono infermi e malati, e parecchi muoiono.

1 Corinzi 11:30 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 11:30

For this cause many are weak and sickly
Because of their unworthy participation of the Lord's supper, many in the Corinthian church were attended with bodily infirmities and diseases; either by way of fatherly chastisement and correction in such who were truly the Lord's people, though they had behaved unworthily; or by way of punishment to such who were not, and had sinned very grossly:

and many sleep;
that is, die a corporeal death, which is often in Scripture signified by sleep, and frequently used of the saints, and their death, and may intend and include some of them here; for though the Lord might resent so far their unworthy conduct and behaviour at his table, as to remove them out of this world by death, yet their souls may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

1 Corinzi 11:30 In-Context

28 Or provi l’uomo se stesso, e così mangi del pane e beva del calice;

29 poiché chi mangia e beve, mangia e beve un giudicio su se stesso, se non discerne il corpo del Signore.

30 Per questa cagione molti fra voi sono infermi e malati, e parecchi muoiono.

31 Ora, se esaminassimo noi stessi, non saremmo giudicati;

32 ma quando siamo giudicati, siam corretti dal Signore, affinché non siam condannati col mondo.
