1 Corinthians 10

10
1 # Rom 1.13; Ex 13.21; 14.22,29. I want you to know, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea, 2#Rom 6.3; Gal 3.27. and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea, 3#Ex 16.4,35. and all ate the same supernatural#10.3 Greek spiritual food 4#Ex 17.6; Num 20.11. and all drank the same supernatural#10.4 Greek spiritual drink. For they drank from the supernatural#10.4 Greek spiritual Rock which followed them, and the Rock was Christ. 5#Num 14.29-30. Nevertheless with most of them God was not pleased; for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
6 # Num 11.4,34. Now these things are warnings for us, not to desire evil as they did. 7#Ex 32.4,6. Do not be idolaters as some of them were; as it is written, “The people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to dance.” 8#Num 25.1-18. We must not indulge in immorality as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in a single day. 9#Num 21.5-6. We must not put the Lord#10.9 Other ancient authorities read Christ to the test, as some of them did and were destroyed by serpents; 10#Num 16.41,49. nor grumble, as some of them did and were destroyed by the Destroyer. 11Now these things happened to them as a warning, but they were written down for our instruction, upon whom the end of the ages has come. 12Therefore let any one who thinks that he stands take heed lest he fall. 13#1 Cor 1.9. No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your strength, but with the temptation will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.
14 # 1 Jn 5.21. Therefore, my beloved, shun the worship of idols. 15I speak as to sensible men; judge for yourselves what I say. 16#Mt 26.27-28; Acts 2.42. The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a participation#10.16 Or communion in the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not a participation#10.16 Or communion in the body of Christ? 17#Rom 12.5. Because there is one bread, we who are many are one body, for we all partake of the one bread. 18#Lev 7.6. Consider the people of Israel;#10.18 Greek Israel according to the flesh are not those who eat the sacrifices partners in the altar? 19What do I imply then? That food offered to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything? 20#Deut 32.17. No, I imply that what pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be partners with demons. 21#2 Cor 6.16. You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons. 22#Deut 32.21; Eccles 6.10; Is 45.9. Shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?
23 # 1 Cor 6.12; Phil 2.21. “All things are lawful,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful,” but not all things build up. 24Let no one seek his own good, but the good of his neighbor. 25Eat whatever is sold in the meat market without raising any question on the ground of conscience. 26#Ps 24.1; 50.12. For “the earth is the Lord's, and everything in it.” 27If one of the unbelievers invites you to dinner and you are disposed to go, eat whatever is set before you without raising any question on the ground of conscience. 28#1 Cor 8.7,10-12. (But if some one says to you, “This has been offered in sacrifice,” then out of consideration for the man who informed you, and for conscience' sake— 29I mean his conscience, not yours—do not eat it.) For why should my liberty be determined by another man's scruples? 30If I partake with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of that for which I give thanks?
31So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. 32#1 Cor 8.13. Give no offense to Jews or to Greeks or to the church of God, 33#1 Cor 9.22; Rom 15.2; 1 Cor 13.5. just as I try to please all men in everything I do, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, that they may be saved.
