1 Corinthians 11:16

1 Corinthians 12:25

Context
12:25 so that there may be no division in the body, but the members may have mutual concern for one another.

1 tn Or “if you have ordinary lawsuits, appoint as judges those who have no standing in the church!” This alternative reading (cf. KJV, NIV) takes the Greek verb καθίζετε (kaqizete) as an ironic imperative instead of a question. This verb comes, however, at the end of the sentence. It is not impossible that Paul meant for it to be understood this way, but its placement in the sentence does not make this probable.

2 tn Grk “to decide between his brother (and his opponent),” but see the note on the word “Christian” in 5:11.
