1 Corinthians I, 2, 3, 4, 7-9 — ‘ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ’ - ‘en CHristo Iesou’ - ‘in Jesus Christ’. ‘ἡμῶν’ - ‘emon’ - ‘us’ (our). ‘ἐν παντὶ τόπῳ’ - ‘en panti topo’ - ‘in every place; in all places; everywhere'.
1 Corinthians I, 3 — ‘ἀπὸ θεοῦ πατρὸς’ - ‘apo theou patros’ - ‘from God(,) the Father’. The preposition ‘apo’ emphasises that this is a gift from God.
1 Corinthians I, 5 — ‘ἐν παντὶ ἐπλουτίσθητε ἐν αὐτῷ, ἐν παντὶ λόγῳ καὶ πάσῃ γνώσει' - en panti eploutisthete en auto en panti logo kai pase gnosei
- in all things became rich in him, in every word and in all (cognition) knowledge
.
1 Corinthians I, 6 — ‘ἐν ὑμῖν’ - ‘en ymin’ - ‘in you; among you’.
1 Corinthians I, 7 — ‘ἐν μηδενὶ χαρίσματι’ - ‘en medeni kharismati’ - ‘in no gift of grace; in no grace’. This means that here not only the Divine energy is called ‘grace’, but also every favour of God.
1 Corinthians I, 8 — ‘ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ’ - ‘en te emera’ - ‘in the Day’.
1 Corinthians I, 9 — ‘εἰς κοινωνίαν’ - ‘eis koinonian’ - ‘into the community; to the community; into fellowship’. Versatile words with different deep meanings. Obviously, the apostle had previously explained to the Corinthians the meaning of these words in detail, so here he only reminds them of what they already knew from him and others.
