1 Corinthians 16:21

16:21 I, Paul, send this greeting with my own hand.

1 Corinthians 1:13

1:13 Is Christ divided? Paul wasn’t crucified for you, was he? ¹  Or were you in fact baptized in the name of Paul? ² 

1 Corinthians 3:4

3:4 For whenever someone says, “I am with Paul,” or “I am with Apollos,” are you not merely human? ³ 

1 Corinthians 1:12

1:12 Now I mean this, that ⁴  each of you is saying, “I am with Paul,” or “I am with Apollos,” or “I am with Cephas,” or “I am with Christ.”

[1:13]  ¹ tn Questions prefaced with μή (mh) in Greek anticipate a negative answer. This can sometimes be indicated by using a “tag” at the end in English (here the tag is “was he?”).

[1:13]  ² tn This third question marks a peak in which Paul’s incredulity at the Corinthians’ attitude is in focus. The words “in fact” have been supplied in the translation to make this rhetorical juncture clear.

[3:4]  ¹ tn Grk “are you not men,” i.e., (fallen) humanity without the Spirit’s influence. Here Paul does not say “walking in accordance with” as in the previous verse; he actually states the Corinthians are this. However, this is almost certainly rhetorical hyperbole.

[1:12]  ¹ tn Or “And I say this because.”
