1 Corinthians 14:28

Verse 28 of 40

Scripture focus

But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.

1 Corinthians 14:28 — KJV

Theological / Devotional

Keep silence. This shows that the one endowed with the gift of tongues had a measure of control over the exercise of the gift (cf. on v. 32).

To himself. Personal edification was apparently the primary purpose of the gift as manifested at Corinth (see Additional Note at end of chapter).
