Hello teacher, The ESV reads, "Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking in the Spirit of God ever says “Jesus is accursed!” and no one can say “Jesus is Lord” except in the Holy Spirit." The Amplified gives sense to the meaning, "Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking under the power and influence of the [Holy] Spirit of God can [ever] say, Jesus be cursed! And no one can [really] say, Jesus is [my] Lord, except by and under the power and influence of the Holy Spirit." The Holy Spirit indwells every believer. ( Rom. 8:9, Eph. 1:13, 1 Cor. 12:13) Regarding this verse, the Bible Knowledge Commentary says, "Before Paul began his discussion of spiritual gifts he thought it necessary to confront, at the outset, any in the Corinthian assembly who might contradict his message (cf. 14:37). It is probably in this regard that 12:3 is to be understood. Many explanations of the verse have been offered (though most commentators “handle” the problem by ignoring it)." Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
