1 Coríntios 10:24

24 Ninguém deve buscar o seu próprio bem, mas sim o dos outros.

1 Coríntios 10:24 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 10:24

Let no man seek his own
His carnal pleasure and private advantage in eating things sacrificed to "idols", to the hurt and disadvantage of his brethren; otherwise it is lawful for a man to seek his own good, temporal, spiritual, and eternal, to seek for the necessaries of life, his spiritual peace and comfort, and his everlasting welfare and happiness; but then he should not only seek his own,

but every man another's wealth,
or "that which is another's"; for the word "wealth" is not in the original text. The apostle's meaning is, that a man, in the use of things indifferent, should not seek the gratifying of his sensual appetite or other passions, what may be pleasing or profitable to himself; but should consult the profit and edification of others.

1 Coríntios 10:24 In-Context

22 Porventura provocaremos o ciúme do Senhor? Somos mais fortes do que ele?

23 “Tudo é permitido”, mas nem tudo convém. “Tudo é permitido”, mas nem tudo edifica.

24 Ninguém deve buscar o seu próprio bem, mas sim o dos outros.

25 Comam de tudo o que se vende no mercado, sem fazer perguntas por causa da consciência,

26 pois “do Senhor é a terra e tudo o que nela existe”.
