1 Cor 14 lets talk about talking
• V1 links Chapter 11 (Spiritual Gifts) to Chapter 12
(Love)
• Love is greater than all the gifts but prophecy is
the greater of the gifts
• Charismata used in Chap 12, pneumaticos used
in Chap 14
• Charismata – gifts
• Pneumaticos – the general indwelling of God’s spirit
• Goes back to the original speaking in tongues at
Shavuot (Pentecost)
• All languages are understood by someone
• If you can’t understand, you or the speaker is a
foreigner
• The Corinthians were zealous for the spiritual
gifts
• The emphasis on ecstatic utterance in Corinth
was, to Paul, childish behavior
• Uninterpreted tongues is no good for Believers or
non-Believers
• Isaiah 28:11-12 For through stammering lips and
a foreign tongue He will speak to this people, to
whom He said, “Here is rest, give rest to the
weary, here is repose”— but they would not listen.
Don’t fall into the paganistic ecstatic babbling
• If it is chaotic and disorderly, it is not from God
• Many interpretations of these two verses
• Not original text
• Was written by Paul as part of order in the body
• Follows scripture, but none was quoted
• My interpretation – This was another meme or
custom of the Corinthians that women had no
place in worship
• Paul’s destroyed that idea in verse 36
