ACC ~ 1 Corinthians 14 v25

THE UNBELIEVER WILL WORSHIP GOD. AMBROSIASTER: When he sees that God is being praised and that Christ is being adored and that nothing is disguised or being done in secret, as happens among pagans, he will understand clearly that this is true religion. COMMENTARY ON PAUL’S EPISTLES.

THE SPIRIT IS GOD. THEODORET OF CYR: Note that here the Holy Spirit is directly called God. COMMENTARY ON THE FIRST EPISTLE TO THE CORINTHIANS 261.

ORDERING PUBLIC WORSHIP 1 CORINTHIANS 14:26-32

OVERVIEW: Those possessed by unclean spirits tend to speak even when they do not want to (SEVERIAN OF GABALA). Such speech should be kept under control in public worship (CYPRIAN, CHRYSOSTOM), leaving sufficient time for the interpretation of Scripture (AMBROSIASTER, CASSIODORUS). Allow all a fair hearing by taking turns (THEODORET OF CYR). Follow the tradition of the synagogue whereby the people dispute while seated in chairs, on benches or on the floor, according to their rank (AMBROSIASTER).
