3 Chi profetizza, invece, parla agli uomini un linguaggio di edificazione, di esortazione e di consolazione.

1 Corinzi 14:3 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 14:3

But he that prophesieth
Preaches, prays, or sings, in a language understood by the common people:

speaketh unto men to edification;
to the building of them up in Christ, and on their most holy faith, so that they grow up as an holy temple to the Lord: and exhortation; to the more vigorous exercise of grace, and the more cheerful and fervent discharge of duty:

and comfort;
of distressed minds, either through the temptations of Satan, or divine desertions, or inward corruptions, or outward afflictions; for all which ends and purposes the Scriptures are written, and gifts are bestowed on men to explain them; and which ends are answered when God gives a blessing to the word; but can never be expected, if delivered in a language not understood. This bears hard upon the Papists performing any part of divine worship in a language unintelligible to the common people.

1 Corinzi 14:3 In-Context

1 Procacciate la carità, non lasciando però di ricercare i doni spirituali, e principalmente il dono di profezia.
2 Perché chi parla in altra lingua non parla agli uomini, ma a Dio; poiché nessuno l’intende, ma in ispirito proferisce misteri.
3 Chi profetizza, invece, parla agli uomini un linguaggio di edificazione, di esortazione e di consolazione.
4 Chi parla in altra lingua edifica se stesso; ma chi profetizza edifica la chiesa.
5 Or io ben vorrei che tutti parlaste in altre lingue; ma molto più che profetaste; chi profetizza è superiore a chi parla in altre lingue, a meno ch’egli interpreti, affinché la chiesa ne riceva edificazione.
