1 Corinthians 5:2

Context
5:2 And you are proud! 1  Shouldn’t you have been deeply sorrowful instead and removed the one who did this 2  from among you?

1 Corinthians 6:7

Context
6:7 The fact that you have lawsuits among yourselves demonstrates that you have already been defeated. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated?

1 Corinthians 7:18

Context
7:18 Was anyone called after he had been circumcised? He should not try to undo his circumcision. 3  Was anyone called who is uncircumcised? He should not get circumcised.

1 tn Or “are puffed up/arrogant,” the same verb occurring in 4:6, 18.

2 tn Grk “sorrowful, so that the one who did this might be removed.”

3 tn Grk “Let him not pull over the foreskin,” that is, attempt to reverse the appearance of circumcision by a surgical procedure. This was sometimes done by Hellenistic Jews to hide the embarrassment of circumcision (1 Macc 1:15; Josephus, Ant. 12.5.1 [12.241]). Cf. BDAG 380 s.v. ἐπισπάω 3.
