1 Coríntios 15:33 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 15:33

Be not deceived
By such as deny the doctrine of the resurrection, and by their reasonings about it; or by such libertines who go into the denial of it, and argue from thence in favour of their licentious course of life:

evil communications corrupt good manners.
This is a sentence taken out of Menander, an Heathen poet, showing how dangerous is the conversation of evil men, and what an influence bad principles communicated and imbibed, have on the lives and practices of men. This the apostle cites not out of ostentation, or to show his reading, learning, and acquaintance with such sort of writers; but partly to observe, that this was a truth obvious by the light of nature, and partly because such a testimony might be more regarded by the Corinthians, who might be fond of such authors, and what was said by them; just as when he was at Athens among the philosophers there, he cites a passage out of Aratus, ( Acts 17:28 ) as he does another out of Epimenides concerning the Cretians, ( Titus 1:12 ) .

1 Coríntios 15:33 In-Context

31 Eu vos declaro, irmãos, pela glória que de vós tenho em Cristo Jesus nosso Senhor, que morro todos os dias.
32 Se, como homem, combati em Éfeso com as feras, que me aproveita isso? Se os mortos não são ressuscitados, comamos e bebamos, porque amanhã morreremos.
33 Não vos enganeis. As más companhias corrompem os bons costumes.
34 Acordai para a justiça e não pequeis mais; porque alguns ainda não têm conhecimento de Deus; digo-o para vergonha vossa.
35 Mas alguém dirá: Como ressuscitam os mortos? e com que qualidade de corpo vêm?
