Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 1 Corinthians 9:16
COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD
16. though I preach . . . I have nothing to glory of —that is, If I preach the Gospel, and do so not gratuitously, I have no matter for "glorying." For the "necessity" that is laid on me to preach (compare :- , and the case of Jonah) does away with ground for "glorying." The sole ground for the latter that I have, is my preaching without charge ( :- ): since there is no necessity laid on me as to the latter, it is my voluntary act for the Gospel's sake. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-17" class="com-number"
