1 Corinthiens 10:26 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 10:26

For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof
Which words are taken out of ( Psalms 24:1 ) and to be understood of Christ, who by creation and preservation is Lord of the whole earth, and as Mediator has all in his possession; and having broken down the middle wall of partition, gives his people the free use of all creatures, of the beasts of the field, the fowls of the air, the fishes of the sea, and the trees, fruits, and plants of the earth, which are the fulness thereof; and therefore as the saints have a full right from Christ, to make use of all the creatures in a moderate way, and with thankfulness, they need not fear being defiled by any of them; provided they do not act contrary to the honour of God, and in favour of an idol, or against their own conscience, and the peace of weak believers.

1 Corinthiens 10:26 In-Context

24 Que personne ne cherche son propre intérêt, mais que chacun cherche celui d'autrui.
25 Mangez de tout ce qui se vend au marché, sans vous enquérir de rien par motif de conscience;
26 car la terre est au Seigneur, et tout ce qu'elle renferme.
27 Si un non-croyant vous invite et que vous vouliez y aller, mangez de tout ce qu'on vous présentera, sans vous enquérir de rien par motif de conscience.
28 Mais si quelqu'un vous dit: Ceci a été offert en sacrifice! n'en mangez pas, à cause de celui qui a donné l'avertissement, et à cause de la conscience.
