1 Corinthians 7:20

7:20 Let each one remain in that situation in life in which he was called.

1 Corinthians 7:24

7:24 In whatever situation someone was called, brothers and sisters, let him remain in it with God.

1 Corinthians 7:26

7:26 Because of the impending crisis I think it best for you to remain as you are.

1 Corinthians 13:13

13:13 And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love.


tn Grk “in the calling.” “Calling” in Paul is God’s work of drawing people to faith in Christ. As in 1:26, calling here stands by metonymy for a person’s circumstances when he becomes a Christian.

tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:10.
