1 Corintios 7:33

33 pero el casado se preocupa por las cosas del mundo, de cómo agradar a su mujer,

1 Corintios 7:33 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 7:33

But he that is married careth for the things that are of
the world
Attending diligently to the business and calling of life, he is engaged in, that he may provide food and clothing, and other necessaries for the support and sustenance of his family:

how he may please his wife:
and make her and his children easy and comfortable. This also is not to be understood of every individual person in a married state as matter of fact; for, on the one hand, there are some who take no care to please their wives and provide for their families, and are worse than infidels; and, on the other hand, there are others who take a proper care to make a suitable provision for their wives and children, to the satisfaction of both; and yet this is not their only care, they also care for the things of the Lord, and concern themselves much for his honour and glory: but the sense is, that, generally speaking, persons in such a state are greatly involved in worldly cares, and have not that leisure, and those opportunities, that single persons have to attend religious exercises; wherefore the single state, on this account, is, in the apostle's opinion, the more preferable.

1 Corintios 7:33 In-Context

31 y los que aprovechan el mundo, como si no lo aprovecharan plenamente; porque la apariencia de este mundo es pasajera.

32 Mas quiero que estéis libres de preocupación. El soltero se preocupa por las cosas del Señor, cómo puede agradar al Señor;

33 pero el casado se preocupa por las cosas del mundo, de cómo agradar a su mujer,

34 y sus intereses están divididos. Y la mujer que no está casada y la doncella se preocupan por las cosas del Señor, para ser santas tanto en cuerpo como en espíritu; pero la casada se preocupa por las cosas del mundo, de cómo agradar a su marido.

35 Y esto digo para vuestro propio beneficio; no para poneros restricción, sino para promover lo que es honesto y para asegurar vuestra constante devoción al Señor.
