About this text

Eusebius of Emesa on 1 Corinthians (single fragment).

Eusebius of Emesa (c. 300–c. 359) is the name on this short fragment on the First Letter to the Corinthians. It is not a full commentary.

Paul tells them not to be eager to avenge themselves, not to judge those who seem to have sinned, and not to be troubled by what is hidden now.

The Lord will bring the hidden things of the ungodly into the light. He will also reveal the purposes of the hearts of the orderly and God-fearing, and praise will come from God.
