ACC ~ 1 Corinthians 10 v8

THE ISRAELITES’ IMMORALITY. PELAGIUS: Note that it was not just idolatry which led to death [but their immorality as well]. COMMENTARY ON THE FIRST EPISTLE TO THE CORINTHIANS 10.

ANOTHER WARNING ABOUT FORNICATION. CHRYSOSTOM: Why does Paul mention fornication again, when he has said so much about it already? It is always Paul’s custom, when he admonishes people of many sins, to put them down in order before proceeding to deal with them individually, and then to refer to earlier topics as he goes down the list. God himself does this in the Old Testament when, in mentioning each particular transgression he keeps going back to the golden calf, reminding the Jews of that sin.Paul is doing this here, reminding them of the sin of fornication and pointing out that the cause of that evil was sloth and gluttony.
