1 CORINTHIANS 10:6 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.”
Now these things occurred as examples for us, to keep us from setting our hearts on evil things as they did. — The word tupoi (types, examples, patterns) signals that Israel's history is instructive. The phrase 'occurred for us' (egenenēthē eis hemac) establishes that scripture is written with the church in mind. The Corinthians must not epithumēo (set hearts on, desire) evil (ta kaka) as Israel did.
