Adam Clarke, on 1Cor 14:36
Adam Clarke · 1762–1832
1Cor 14:36 · Douay-Rheims
“Or did the word of God come out from you? Or came it only unto you?”
On this verse:
“Came the word of God out from you? - Was it from you that other Churches received the Gospel? Are you the mother Church? that you should have rules, and orders, and customs, different from all others; and set yourselves up for a model to be copied by all the Churches of Christ? Or came it unto you only? - Are you the only Church of God? Are there not many others founded before you that have no such customs, and permit no such disorders?”
