1 Coríntios 8:5 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 8:5

For though there be that are called gods
That are so by name, though not by nature; who are called so in Scripture, as angels and magistrates, or by men, who give them such names, and account them so:

whether in heaven;
as the sun, moon, and stars:

or in earth;
as men who formerly lived on earth; or various creatures on earth, who have been accounted deities; or stocks and stones graven by man's device:

as there be gods many:
almost without number, as were among the Egyptians, Grecians, Romans, and others; yea, even among the Jews, who falling into idolatry, their gods were according to the number of their cities, ( Jeremiah 2:28 )

and lords many;
referring to the Baalim, or the several idols that went by the name of Baal, or lord, as Baal Peor, ( Numbers 25:3 ) Baal Zephon, ( Exodus 14:2 ) Baal Zebub, ( 2 Kings 1:2 ) Baal Berith, ( Judges 8:33 ) .

1 Coríntios 8:5 In-Context

3 Mas quem ama a Deus, este Ă© conhecido por Deus.
4 Portanto, em relação ao alimento sacrificado aos ídolos, sabemos que o ídolo não significa nada no mundo e que só existe um Deus.
5 Pois, mesmo que haja os chamados deuses, quer no céu, quer na terra (como de fato há muitos “deuses” e muitos “senhores”),
6 para nós, porém, há um único Deus, o Pai, de quem vêm todas as coisas e para quem vivemos; e um só Senhor, Jesus Cristo, por meio de quem vieram todas as coisas e por meio de quem vivemos.
7 Contudo, nem todos tĂŞm esse conhecimento. Alguns, ainda habituados com os Ă­dolos, comem esse alimento como se fosse um sacrifĂ­cio idĂłlatra; como a consciĂŞncia deles Ă© fraca, fica contaminada.
