1 Coríntios 11:30

30 Por isso há entre vocês muitos fracos e doentes, e vários já dormiram.

1 Coríntios 11:30 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 11:30

For this cause many are weak and sickly
Because of their unworthy participation of the Lord's supper, many in the Corinthian church were attended with bodily infirmities and diseases; either by way of fatherly chastisement and correction in such who were truly the Lord's people, though they had behaved unworthily; or by way of punishment to such who were not, and had sinned very grossly:

and many sleep;
that is, die a corporeal death, which is often in Scripture signified by sleep, and frequently used of the saints, and their death, and may intend and include some of them here; for though the Lord might resent so far their unworthy conduct and behaviour at his table, as to remove them out of this world by death, yet their souls may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

1 Coríntios 11:30 In-Context

28 Examine-se cada um a si mesmo e então coma do pão e beba do cálice.
29 Pois quem come e bebe sem discernir o corpo do Senhor come e bebe para sua própria condenação.
30 Por isso há entre vocês muitos fracos e doentes, e vários já dormiram.
31 Mas, se nós tivéssemos o cuidado de examinar a nós mesmos, não receberíamos juízo.
32 Quando, porém, somos julgados pelo Senhor, estamos sendo disciplinados para que não sejamos condenados com o mundo.
