tgbishop, Note on 1 Cor :20-22 from the NAB. "The Corinthians pride themselves on tongues as a sign of God's favor, a means of direct communication with him (2.28). To challenge them to a more mature appraisal, Paul draws from scripture a less flattering explanation of what speaking in tongues may signify. Isaiah threatened the people that if they failed to listen to their prophets, the Lord would speak to them (in punishment) through the lips of Assyrian conquerors (Isaiah 28:11-12 )Paul compresses Isaiah's text and makes God address his people directly. Equating tongues with foreign languages (cf 1 Cor 14:10-11 )Paul concludes from Isaiah that tongues are a sign not for those who believe, i.e., not a mark of God's pleasure for those who listen to him but a mark of his displeasure with those in the community who are faithless, who have not heeded the message that he has sent through the prophets." http://www.nccbuscc.org/nab/bible/1corinthians/1corinthians14.htm Emmaus |

Emmaus, I seem to recall that John Chrysostom had some useful things to say about 1 Corinthians 14. Do you happen to have access to any of his comments? I can't seem to put my finger on them. | ||||||
