Discovery Box1 Corinthians 13:11 
Context13:11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. But when I became an adult, 1 I set aside childish ways.
1 Corinthians 16:2
Context16:2 On the first day of the week, each of you should set aside some income 2 and save 3 it to the extent that God has blessed you, 4 so that a collection will not have to be made 5 when I come.
1 tn The Greek term translated “adult” here is ἀνήρ (anhr), a term which ordinarily refers to males, husbands, etc. In this context Paul contrasts the states of childhood and adulthood, so the term has been translated “adult”; cf. BDAG 79 s.v. 1.b.
2 tn Grk “set aside, storing whatever he has been blessed with.”
3 tn Grk “set aside, storing.” The participle θησαυρίζων (qhsaurizwn) indicates the purpose or result of setting aside the extra income.
4 tn “To the extent that God has blessed you” translates an awkward expression, “whatever has been prospered [to you].” This verb has been translated as an active with “God” as subject, taking it as a divine passive.
5 tn Grk “so that collections will not be taking place.”
