1 Coríntios 14:14

Listen to 1 Coríntios 14:14
14 Pois, se oro em uma lĂ­ngua, meu espĂ­rito ora, mas a minha mente fica infrutĂ­fera.

1 Coríntios 14:14 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 14:14

For if I pray in an unknown tongue
In the Hebrew tongue, which the greatest part of the Jewish doctors insisted F1 upon should be only used in prayer; which notion might be borrowed from them, and now greatly prevailed in the church at Corinth; and the custom was used by such as had the gift of speaking that language, even though the body and bulk of the people understood it not:

my spirit prayeth;
I pray with my breath vocally; or else with affection and devotion, understanding what I say myself, and so am edified; or rather with the gift of the Spirit bestowed on me:

but my understanding is unfruitful;
that is, what I say with understanding to myself is unprofitable to others, not being understood by them.

1 Coríntios 14:14 In-Context

12 Assim acontece com vocês. Visto que estão ansiosos por terem dons espirituais, procurem crescer naqueles que trazem a edificação para a igreja.
13 Por isso, quem fala em uma lĂ­ngua, ore para que a possa interpretar.
14 Pois, se oro em uma lĂ­ngua, meu espĂ­rito ora, mas a minha mente fica infrutĂ­fera.
15 Então, que farei? Orarei com o espírito, mas também orarei com o entendimento; cantarei com o espírito, mas também cantarei com o entendimento.
16 Se você estiver louvando a Deus em espírito, como poderá aquele que está entre os não instruídos dizer o “Amém” à sua ação de graças, visto que não sabe o que você está dizendo?
