1 Corinthiërs 12:20 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 12:20

But now are they many members
Of different make and shape, in different parts and places, and of different use and service: yet but one body;
all are united together, and make up one complete body, and which without each of them would not be perfect: so there are many members in the body of Christ, the church; some are teachers, others are hearers; some give, and others receive; but all make up but one church, of which Christ is the head; nor can anyone of them be spared; was anyone wanting, even the meanest, there would be a deficiency, and the church would not be the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

1 Corinthiërs 12:20 In-Context

18 Maar nu heeft God de leden gezet, een iegelijk van dezelve in het lichaam, gelijk Hij gewild heeft.
19 Waren zij alle maar een lid, waar zou het lichaam zijn?
20 Maar nu zijn er wel vele leden, doch maar een lichaam.
21 En het oog kan niet zeggen tot de hand: Ik heb u niet van node; of wederom het hoofd tot de voeten: Ik heb u niet van node.
22 Ja veeleer, de leden, die ons dunken de zwakste des lichaams te zijn, die zijn nodig.
