Reformed 1871 · Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1Cor 14:6

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown, on 1Cor 14:6

1Cor 14:6 · Douay-Rheims
“But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophecy, or in doctrine?”
On this verse:
“Translate, "But now"; seeing there is no edification without interpretation. revelation . . . prophesying--corresponding one to the other; "revelation" being the supernatural unveiling of divine truths to man, "prophesying" the enunciation to men of such revelations. So "knowledge" corresponds to "doctrine," which is the gift of teaching to others our knowledge. As the former pair refers to specially revealed mysteries, so the latter pair refers to the general obvious truths of salvation, brought from the common storehouse of believers.”
