1 Corinzi 12:14 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 12:14

For the body is not one member
Not only one; nor is anyone member the body, though ever so eminent, as the head or eye: thus the church of Christ is not one person only, or does not consist of one sort of persons; as only of Jews, or only of Gentiles, or only of rich and freemen, or only of men of extraordinary gifts and abilities, or greatly eminent for grace and spiritual knowledge:

but many;
members, as the Arabic version adds; as eyes, ears, hands, feet so in the mystical body of Christ, the church, there are many members, some in a higher station, others in a lower; some of greater gifts, grace, and usefulness, others of lesser; some Jews, other Gentiles; some bond, others free; yet all one in Christ the head, and all related to each other.

1 Corinzi 12:14 In-Context

12 PERCIOCCHÈ, siccome il corpo è un solo corpo, ed ha molte membra, e tutte le membra di quel corpo, che è un solo, benchè sieno molte, sono uno stesso corpo, così ancora è Cristo.
13 Poichè in uno stesso Spirito noi tutti siamo stati battezzati, per essere un medesimo corpo; e Giudei, e Greci; e servi, e franchi; e tutti siamo stati abbeverati in un medesimo Spirito.
14 Perciocchè ancora il corpo non è un sol membro, ma molti.
15 Se il piè dice: Perciocchè io non son mano, io non son del corpo, non è egli però del corpo?
16 E se l’orecchio dice: Perciocchè io non son occhio, io non son del corpo; non è egli però del corpo?
