1 Corinthians 7:21-24

Context
7:21 Were you called as a slave? 1  Do not worry about it. But if indeed you are able to be free, make the most of the opportunity. 7:22 For the one who was called in the Lord as a slave is the Lord’s freedman. In the same way, the one who was called as a free person is Christ’s slave. 7:23 You were bought with a price. Do not become slaves of men. 7:24 In whatever situation someone was called, brothers and sisters, 2  let him remain in it with God.

1 tn Traditionally, “servant” (KJV), though almost all modern translations render the word as “slave” here.

2 tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:10.
