1 Corinthians 10:17-19

Expanded Bible

¹⁷ Because there is one loaf of bread, we who are many are one body, because we all share that one loaf.

¹⁸ Think about ·the Israelites [^LIsrael according to the flesh]: Do not those who eat the sacrifices ·share [participate] in the altar [^Cby eating the sacrificial food, priests in the Jerusalem temple participate in the worship of God]? ¹⁹ ·I do not mean [^LWhat, then, am I saying…?] that the food sacrificed to an idol is important or that an idol is anything at all.
