1 Corinthians 8:9-11

Context
8:9 But be careful that this liberty of yours does not become a hindrance to the weak. 8:10 For if someone weak sees you who possess knowledge dining in an idol’s temple, will not his conscience be “strengthened” 1  to eat food offered to idols? 8:11 So by your knowledge the weak brother or sister, 2  for whom Christ died, is destroyed. 3

[8:10]  1 tn Or “built up”; This is the same word used in v. 1b. It is used ironically here: The weak person is “built up” to commit what he regards as sin.

[8:11]  1 tn Grk “the one who is weak…the brother for whom Christ died,” but see note on the word “Christian” in 5:11.

[8:11]  2 tn This may be an indirect middle, “destroys himself.”
