1 Corinzi 8:2

2 Se alcuno si pensa di conoscer qualcosa, egli non conosce ancora come si deve conoscere;

1 Corinzi 8:2 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 8:2

And if any man think that he knows anything
Whoever has an opinion of himself, or is conceited with his own knowledge, and fancies that he knows more than he does; which is always the case of those that are elated with their knowledge, and treat others with contempt, and have no regard to their peace and edification:

he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know;
if he did, he would know this, that he ought to consult the peace, comfort, and edification of his brother; and therefore whatever knowledge he may fancy he has attained to, or whatever he may be capable of, and hereafter obtain, for the present he must be put down for a man that knows nothing as he should do; for he knows neither his duty to God nor man; if he knew the former, he would know the latter.

1 Corinzi 8:2 In-Context

2 Se alcuno si pensa di conoscer qualcosa, egli non conosce ancora come si deve conoscere;

4 Quanto dunque al mangiar delle carni sacrificate agl’idoli, noi sappiamo che l’idolo non è nulla nel mondo, e che non c’è alcun Dio fuori d’un solo.

5 Poiché, sebbene vi siano de’ cosiddetti dèi tanto in cielo che in terra, come infatti ci sono molti dèi e molti signori,
