The apostle perhaps meant that the meanest persons in the church were competent to decide the causes which they brought before the heathen magistrates.

St. Paul evidently gave this advice in reference to the necessities of the church, or what he calls (ver. 26) the present distress; for it would be perfectly absurd to imagine that an inspired apostle would in the general, discountenance marriage, since it was of the greatest importance to the existence and happiness of future generations, and expressly agreeable to a Divine institution.
But <235> [But.]
let them get married ...... to marry <1060> [let.]
not <3756> [yet.]

Let .... remain <3306> [abide.]
a slave <1401> [being.]
a slave <1401> [a servant.]
Rather, a slave, [doulos <\\See definition 1401\\>,] the property of another, and bought with his money. In these verses the apostle shows that Christianity makes no change in our civil connections.
Do ... worry <3199> [care.]

With regard <4012> [concerning.]
people who have never married <3933> [virgins.]
The word [parthenos <\\See definition 3933\\>,] as well as the Latin {virgo,} "a virgin," though it generally signifies a maid, frequently denotes unmarried persons of both sexes; in which sense it is evidently used here by the apostle.
I have <2192> [have.]
shown mercy <1653> [obtained.]
<318> [distress. or, necessity.]
bound <1210> [thou bound.]
you have ... sinned ....... she has ... sinned <264> [thou hast.]

For <1063> [for.]
present shape <4976> [the fashion.]
[To <\\See definition 3588\\> schema <\\See definition 4976\\>,] the form or appearance. Grotius remarks that the apostle's expression is borrowed from the theatre, where [to <\\See definition 3588\\> schema <\\See definition 4976\\> tes skenes <\\See definition 4633\\> paragei] means that the scene changes, and presents an appearance entirely new.

a married woman <1060> [she that.]

This is an allusion to the {Retiarius} among the Romans, who carried a small casting net, {rete,} which he endeavoured to throw over his adversary's head.
notable <2158> [comely.]
to ................ and constant service <1161 2443 2532 2145> [and that.]
his virgin <846 3933> [his virgin.]
Some interpret this of a man's continuing in a state of celibacy, and render [parthenos <\\See definition 3933\\>,] not a virgin, but virginity; but such a construction of the original appears without example. It appears most obvious to explain it of a parent, or guardian, who had the charge of a virgin; and Kypke has shown that [ten parthenon autou <\\See definition 847\\>] is an elegant phrase for his virgin daughter.
past the bloom of youth <5230> [the flower.]

A wife <1135> [wife.]

she remains <2076 3306> [she.]
I think <1380> [I think.]
Rather, "I judge (or consider) also that I have the Spirit of God;" for [dokein] is frequently used to express not what is doubtful, but what is true and certain.

The apostle concludes the subject by giving them a general rule, sufficient to regulate every man's conscience and practice,--that whether they eat, or drink, or whatsoever they do, to do it all with an habitual aim to the glory of God; by considering his precepts, and the propriety, expediency, appearance, and tendency of their actions.
