Verse 27 of 40

Scripture focus

If any man speak in an [unknown] tongue, [let it be] by two, or at the most [by] three, and [that] by course; and let one interpret.

1 Corinthians 14:27 — KJV

Theological / Devotional

An unknown tongue. Literally, “a tongue.”

By course. That is, in turn, not at the same time.

One interpret. See on chs. 12:10; 14:5. Possibly one person would be capable of interpreting all that was said by those speaking with tongues.
