1 Corinthians 9:4

9:4 Do we not have the right to financial support?

1 Corinthians 9:13-14

9:13 Don’t you know that those who serve in the temple eat food from the temple, and those who serve at the altar receive a part of the offerings? 9:14 In the same way the Lord commanded those who proclaim the gospel to receive their living by the gospel.

tn Grk “the right to eat and drink.” In the context this is a figurative reference to financial support.

tn Grk “working the sacred things.”
