Discovery Box1 Corinthians 3:15

1 Corinthians 10:7
Context10:7 So 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 play.” 2
1 Corinthians 15:34
Context15:34 Sober up as you should, and stop sinning! For some have no knowledge of God – I say this to your shame!
1 tn The translation “[will] be punished” is given here by BDAG 428 s.v. ζημιόω 2. But the next clause says “he will be delivered” and so “suffering loss” is more likely to refer to the destruction of the “work” by fire or the loss of the reward that could have been gained.
2 tn The term “play” may refer to idolatrous, sexual play here, although that is determined by the context rather than the meaning of the word itself (cf. BDAG 750 s.v. παίζω).
