1 Corinzi 5:4

4 Nel nome del Signor Gesù, essendo insieme adunati voi e lo spirito mio, con la potestà del Signor nostro Gesù,

1 Corinzi 5:4 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 5:4

In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ
These words contain an account of the several things and circumstances, that should attend the awful act of the apostle, in delivering this man to Satan; it would be done "in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ"; by his command, power, and authority, and for his glory; in whose name all miraculous actions, as this was one, were performed:

when ye are gathered together;
as a church, in a public manner, in one place; not to do this business, for this was purely apostolical; but to be witness of this wonderful operation, to acknowledge the justice of God in it, and that they might fear and take warning by it:

and my spirit;
meaning that though he was absent in body, he should be present in spirit; and that the extraordinary gift of the Spirit of God bestowed on him would be visibly exercised upon this man before them all, as if he himself was in the midst of them; and this not by any power of his own, but

with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ;
to which all such miraculous effects, as this hereafter related, are to be ascribed.

1 Corinzi 5:4 In-Context

2 E siete gonfi, e non avete invece fatto cordoglio perché colui che ha commesso quell’azione fosse tolto di mezzo a voi!
3 Quanto a me, assente di persona ma presente in ispirito, ho già giudicato, come se fossi presente, colui che ha perpetrato un tale atto.
4 Nel nome del Signor Gesù, essendo insieme adunati voi e lo spirito mio, con la potestà del Signor nostro Gesù,
5 ho deciso che quel tale sia dato in man di Satana, a perdizione della carne, onde lo spirito sia salvo nel giorno del Signor Gesù.
6 Il vostro vantarvi non è buono. Non sapete voi che un po’ di lievito fa lievitare tutta la pasta?
