1 CORINTHIANS 12:16 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?”
And if the ear says, 'Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,' it would not for that reason stop being part of the body — the same logic applies to the ear: its non-visual function does not diminish its membership; Paul is clearly addressing Corinthian status anxiety about gifts and their social weight.
