1 Corintios 3:4

4 Porque diciendo el uno: Yo cierto soy de Pablo; y el otro: Yo de Apolos; ¿no sois carnales?

1 Corintios 3:4 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 3:4

For while one saith, I am of Paul
This shows what their envying and strife, and divisions were about, and from whence they sprung; and which serve, to strengthen the proof, and support the charge of carnality brought against them; for when one sort made a party for Paul, and set up him as their minister above all others; and said

another, I am of Apollos,
preferring him for his eloquence above Paul, or any other preacher, as appears from ( 1 Corinthians 1:12 ) there was a third sort for Cephas, whom they cried up as superior to the other two, or any other man; and a fourth were for Christ, and despised all ministers whatever:

are ye not carnal?
all this was a demonstration of it: they could never clear themselves from it, they must be convicted in their own consciences of it; to which the apostle appeals: the Alexandrian copy and the Vulgate Latin and Ethiopic versions read, "are ye not men?"

1 Corintios 3:4 In-Context

2 Os dí á beber leche, y no vianda: porque aun no podíais, ni aun podéis ahora;

3 Porque todavía sois carnales: pues habiendo entre vosotros celos, y contiendas, y disensiones, ¿no sois carnales, y andáis como hombres?

4 Porque diciendo el uno: Yo cierto soy de Pablo; y el otro: Yo de Apolos; ¿no sois carnales?

5 ¿Qué pues es Pablo? ¿y qué es Apolos? Ministros por los cuales habéis creído; y eso según que á cada uno ha concedido el Señor.

6 Yo planté, Apolos regó: mas Dios ha dado el crecimiento.
