ACC ~ 1 Corinthians 15 v30

THEME. AMBROSIASTER: The theme here is that unless there is such a fact as the resurrection of the dead, all this is pointless. COMMENTARY ON PAUL’S EPISTLES.

TAKING RISKS FOR FAITH. DIDYMUS THE BLIND: If the soul is not immortal, if the body does not rise from the dead, there would be no point taking risks on behalf of the faith. PAULINE COMMENTARY FROM THE GREEK CHURCH.

WHY IN PERIL? CHRYSOSTOM: Who would choose a life of constant danger if there was no point to it? Some people do this kind of thing in a moment of vain boasting, but that is not the same as dedicating one’s whole life to it over a number of years. HOMILIES ON THE EPISTLES OF PAUL TO THE CORINTHIANS 40.3.
