Brethren--an appellation calculated to conciliate their favorable reception of his exhortation. children in understanding--as preference of gifts abused to nonedification would make you (compare Co1 3:1; Mat 10:16; Rom 16:19; Eph 4:14). The Greek for "understanding" expresses the will of one's spirit, Rom 8:6 (it is not found elsewhere); as the "heart" is the will of the "soul." The same Greek is used for "minded" in Rom 8:6. men--full-grown. Be childlike, not childish.

He begins with advising them of all spiritual gifts to prefer prophesying, and shows that this is much better than speaking with tongues (Co1 14:1-5). II. He goes on to show them how unprofitable the speaking of foreign languages is, and useless to the church; it is like piping in one tone, like sounding a trumpet without any certain note, like talking gibberish; whereas gifts should be used for the good of the church (Co1 14:6-14). III. He advises that worship should be celebrated so that the most ignorant might understand, and join in prayer and praise, and presses the advice by his own example (Co1 14:15-20). IV. He informs them that tongues were a sign for unbelievers rather than those that believe; and represents the advantage of prophecy above speaking with tongues, from the different suggestions they would give to the mind of an unbeliever coming into their assemblies (Co1 14:21-25). V. He blames them for the disorder and confusion they had brought into the assembly, by their vanity and ostentation of their gifts; and directs them in using the gifts both of tongues and prophecy (Co1 14:26-33). VI. He forbids women speaking in the church; and closes this subject by requiring them to perform every thing in the public worship with order and decency (Co1 14:34 to the end).

وَكَأَطْفَال مَوْلُودِينَ الآنَ، اشْتَهُوا اللَّبَنَ الْعَقْلِيَّ الْعَدِيمَ الْغِشِّ لِكَيْ تَنْمُوا بِهِ،
لَمَّا كُنْتُ طِفْلاً كَطِفْل كُنْتُ أَتَكَلَّمُ، وَكَطِفْل كُنْتُ أَفْطَنُ، وَكَطِفْل كُنْتُ أَفْتَكِرُ. وَلكِنْ لَمَّا صِرْتُ رَجُلاً أَبْطَلْتُ مَا لِلطِّفْلِ.
لأَنَّ طَاعَتَكُمْ ذَاعَتْ إِلَى الْجَمِيعِ، فَأَفْرَحُ أَنَا بِكُمْ، وَأُرِيدُ أَنْ تَكُونُوا حُكَمَاءَ لِلْخَيْرِ وَبُسَطَاءَ لِلشَّرِّ.
وَقَالَ:«اَلْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنْ لَمْ تَرْجِعُوا وَتَصِيرُوا مِثْلَ الأَوْلاَدِ فَلَنْ تَدْخُلُوا مَلَكُوتَ السَّمَاوَاتِ.
لكِنَّنَا نَتَكَلَّمُ بِحِكْمَةٍ بَيْنَ الْكَامِلِينَ، وَلكِنْ بِحِكْمَةٍ لَيْسَتْ مِنْ هذَا الدَّهْرِ، وَلاَ مِنْ عُظَمَاءِ هذَا الدَّهْرِ، الَّذِينَ يُبْطَلُونَ.
Pوَلكِنِ انْمُوا فِي النِّعْمَةِ وَفِي مَعْرِفَةِ رَبِّنَا وَمُخَلِّصِنَا يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ. لَهُ الْمَجْدُ الآنَ وَإِلَى يَوْمِ الدَّهْرِ. آمِينَ.
وَهذَا أُصَلِّيهِ: أَنْ تَزْدَادَ مَحَبَّتُكُمْ أَيْضًا أَكْثَرَ فَأَكْثَرَ فِي الْمَعْرِفَةِ وَفِي كُلِّ فَهْمٍ،
اَلْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: مَنْ لاَ يَقْبَلُ مَلَكُوتَ اللهِ مِثْلَ وَلَدٍ فَلَنْ يَدْخُلَهُ».
أَكْثَرَ مِنْ كُلِّ مُعَلِّمِيَّ تَعَقَّلْتُ، لأَنَّ شَهَادَاتِكَ هِيَ لَهَجِي.
فَلْيَفْتَكِرْ هذَا جَمِيعُ الْكَامِلِينَ مِنَّا، وَإِنِ افْتَكَرْتُمْ شَيْئًا بِخِلاَفِهِ فَاللهُ سَيُعْلِنُ لَكُمْ هذَا أَيْضًا.
