Immoraliteit binnen de gemeenschap

5 Ik heb gehoord dat er bij u ontucht plaatsvindt en dan nog wel van een soort dat zelfs onder ongelovigen niet voorkomt. Er is een man bij u die met zijn stiefmoeder naar bed gaat. 2 En u maar verwaand zijn! U had beter in de rouw kunnen gaan! Waarom hebt u die man niet uitgestoten uit uw gemeente? 3 Want al ben ik lichamelijk afwezig, in gedachten ben ik bij u. Ik heb mijn oordeel over die man al klaar, alsof ik zelf aanwezig was. 4 Als u in de naam van onze Here Jezus bijeen bent en ik er in gedachten bij ben, moeten we die man door de kracht van de Here Jezus 5 uit onze gemeenschap stoten en aan Satan overleveren. Daardoor zal zijn menselijke natuur worden verwoest, maar kan zijn geest op de grote dag van de Here gered worden.

6 Het is niet goed dat u zo verwaand bent. Hoe hebt u zoiets door de vingers kunnen zien? Zo gaat het immers van kwaad tot erger. Weet u niet dat door een klein beetje gist het hele deeg gaat gisten? 7 Gooi de oude gist weg, anders bent u geen vers deeg. Er hoort bij u geen gist te zijn omdat Christus, ons Paaslam, geofferd is. 8 Laten wij dat dan ook blijven vieren, niet met oud gist of met gist van kwaad en schande, maar met het ongegiste brood van zuiverheid en waarheid.

9 Ik heb u al eerder geschreven niet om te gaan met mensen die vrije seks bedrijven. 10 Ik bedoel daarmee niet dat soort mensen in het algemeen of egoïsten, oplichters en afgodendienaars. Want dan zou u de wereld beter kunnen verlaten. 11 Nu schrijf ik u echter helemaal niet om te gaan met iemand die, al zegt hij een gelovige te zijn, er op seksueel gebied maar op losleeft, egoïstisch is, afgoden dient, roddelt, teveel drinkt of anderen uitbuit. Met zo iemand moet u zelfs niet samen eten. 12 Kijk, ik hoef niet over buitenstaanders te oordelen. Dat zal God wel doen. 13 De mensen uit uw eigen midden, die moet u veroordelen. Verwijder die slechte man uit uw midden!

Church Discipline

5 It is actually reported that sexual immorality exists among you, the kind of immorality that is not permitted even among the Gentiles, so that someone is cohabiting with[a] his father’s wife. 2 And you are proud![b] Shouldn’t you have been deeply sorrowful instead and removed the one who did this[c] from among you? 3 For even though I am absent physically,[d] I am present in spirit. And I have already judged the one who did this, just as though I were present.[e] 4 When you gather together in the name of our Lord Jesus,[f] and I am with you in spirit,[g] along with the power of our Lord Jesus, 5 hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved[h] in the day of the Lord.[i]

6 Your boasting is not good. Don’t you know that a little yeast[j] affects[k] the whole batch of dough? 7 Clean out the old yeast so that you may be a new batch of dough—you are, in fact, without yeast. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed. 8 So then, let us celebrate the festival, not with the old yeast, the yeast of vice and evil, but with the bread without yeast, the bread of sincerity and truth.[l]

9 I wrote you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people. 10 In no way did I mean the immoral people of this world, or the greedy and swindlers and idolaters, since you would then have to go out of the world. 11 But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who calls himself a Christian[m] who is sexually immoral, or greedy, or an idolater, or verbally abusive,[n] or a drunkard, or a swindler. Do not even eat with such a person. 12 For what do I have to do with judging those outside? Are you not to judge those inside? 13 But God will judge those outside. Remove the evil person from among you.[o]

Footnotes

  1. 1 Corinthians 5:1 tn Or “someone has married”; Grk “someone has,” but the verb ἔχω (echō) is routinely used of marital relationships (cf. BDAG 420 s.v. 2.a), including sexual relationships. The exact nature of the relationship is uncertain in this case; it is not clear, for example, whether the man had actually married the woman or was merely cohabiting with her.
  2. 1 Corinthians 5:2 tn Or “are puffed up/arrogant,” the same verb occurring in 4:6, 18.
  3. 1 Corinthians 5:2 tn Grk “sorrowful, so that the one who did this might be removed.”
  4. 1 Corinthians 5:3 tn Grk “in body.”
  5. 1 Corinthians 5:3 tn Verse 3 is one sentence in Greek (“For—even though I am absent in body, yet present in spirit—I have already judged the one who did this, as though I were present”) that has been broken up due to English stylistic considerations.
  6. 1 Corinthians 5:4 tc On the wording “our Lord Jesus” (τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν ᾿Ιησοῦ, tou kuriou hēmōn Iēsou) there is some variation in the extant witnesses: ἡμῶν is lacking in א A Ψ 1505; Χριστοῦ (Christou, “Christ”) is found after ᾿Ιησοῦ in P46 א D2 F G 33 1881 M co and before ᾿Ιησοῦ in 81. The wording τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν ᾿Ιησοῦ is read by B D* 1175 1739. Concerning Χριστοῦ, even though the external evidence for this is quite good, it may well be a motivated reading. Elsewhere in Paul the expression “our Lord Jesus” is routinely followed by “Christ” (e.g., Rom 5:1, 11; 15:6, 30; 1 Cor 1:2, 7, 10; 15:57; 2 Cor 8:9; Gal 6:14, 18, Eph 1:3, 17; 5:20; 6:24; Col 1:3; 1 Thess 1:3; 5:9, 23, 28). Less commonly, the wording is simply “our Lord Jesus” (e.g., Rom 16:20; 2 Cor 1:14; 1 Thess 2:19; 3:11, 13; 2 Thess 1:8, 12). A preference should thus be given to the shorter reading. As for the ἡμῶν, it is very difficult to decide: “the Lord Jesus” occurs as often as “our Lord Jesus” (cf. 1 Cor 11:23; 16:23; 2 Cor 4:14; 11:31; Eph 1:15; 1 Thess 4:2; 2 Thess 1:7; Phlm 5). Although scribes would tend to expand on the text, the only witnesses that have “the Lord Jesus” (without “our” or “Christ”) are A Ψ 1505. On balance, then, “our Lord Jesus” is the best reading in this verse.
  7. 1 Corinthians 5:4 tn Verses 4b-5a are capable of various punctuations: (1) “and I am with you in spirit, through the power of our Lord Jesus turn this man over to Satan”; (2) “and I am with you in spirit with the power of our Lord Jesus, turn this man over to Satan”; (3) “and I am with you in spirit, along with the power of our Lord Jesus, turn this man over to Satan” (as adopted in the text). The first option suggests the Lord’s power is needed when the church is to hand the man over to Satan; the second option suggests that the Lord’s power is present when Paul is gathered with the Corinthians in spirit; the third option leaves the relation of the Lord’s power to the surrounding phrases vague, perhaps implying that both are in view.
  8. 1 Corinthians 5:5 tn Or perhaps “turn this man over to Satan for the destruction of your fleshly works, so that your spirit may be saved…”; Grk “for the destruction of the flesh, so that the spirit may be saved.” This is one of the most difficult passages in the NT, and there are many different interpretations regarding what is in view here. (1) Many interpreters see this as some sort of excommunication (“turn this man over to Satan”) which in turn leads to the man’s physical death (“the destruction of the flesh”), resulting in the man’s ultimate salvation (“that [his] spirit may be saved…”). (2) Others see the phrase “destruction of the flesh” as referring to extreme physical suffering or illness that stops short of physical death, thus leading the offender to repentance and salvation. (3) A number of scholars (e.g. G. D. Fee, First Corinthians [NICNT], 212-13) take the reference to the “flesh” to refer to the offender’s “sinful nature” or “carnal nature,” which is “destroyed” by placing him outside the church, back in Satan’s domain (exactly how this “destruction” is accomplished is not clear, and is one of the problems with this view). (4) More recently some have argued that neither the “flesh” nor the “spirit” belong to the offender, but to the church collectively; thus it is the “fleshly works” of the congregation which are being destroyed by the removal of the offender (cf. 5:13) so that the “spirit,” the corporate life of the church lived in union with God through the Holy Spirit, may be preserved (cf. 5:7-8). See, e.g., B. Campbell, “Flesh and Spirit in 1 Cor 5:5: An Exercise in Rhetorical Criticism of the NT,” JETS 36 (1993): 331-42. The alternate translation “for the destruction of your fleshly works, so that your spirit may be saved” reflects this latter view.
  9. 1 Corinthians 5:5 tc The shorter reading, κυρίου (kuriou, “Lord”), is found in P46 B 630 1739; κυρίου ᾿Ιησοῦ (kuriou Iēsou, “Lord Jesus”) is read by P61vid א Ψ M; κυρίου ᾿Ιησοῦ Χριστοῦ (kuriou Iēsou Christou, “Lord Jesus Christ”) by D; and κυρίου ἡμῶν ᾿Ιησοῦ Χριστοῦ (kuriou hēmōn Iēsou Christou, “our Lord Jesus Christ”) by A F G P 33 al. The shorter reading is preferred as the reading that best explains the other readings, especially in view of the mention of “Jesus” twice in the previous verse.
  10. 1 Corinthians 5:6 sn In this passage (5:6-8) yeast represents the presence of evil within the church, specifically the immoral person described in 5:1-5 and mentioned again in 5:13.
  11. 1 Corinthians 5:6 tn Grk “a little yeast leavens.”
  12. 1 Corinthians 5:8 tn Grk “with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.”
  13. 1 Corinthians 5:11 tn Grk “a brother,” but the Greek word “brother” may be used for “brother or sister,” “fellow Christian,” or “fellow member of the church.” Here the term “brother” broadly connotes familial relationships within the family of God (cf. BDAG 18 s.v. ἀδελφός 2.a).
  14. 1 Corinthians 5:11 tn Or “a reviler”; BDAG 602 s.v. λοίδορος defines the term as “reviler, abusive person.”
  15. 1 Corinthians 5:13 sn An allusion to Deut 17:7; 19:19; 22:21, 24; 24:7; cf. 1 Cor 5:2.

Disciplinando um caso de imoralidade

5 Fala-se muito por toda a parte da imoralidade sexual tolerada no vosso meio, tão má que nem sequer entre os gentios se encontra: um homem na vossa congregação está a viver em pecado com a mulher de seu pai. 2 Como se justifica então a vossa presunção? Não seria antes caso para chorar de tristeza e tirar esse indivíduo do vosso meio?

3 Ainda que não esteja convosco, contudo, estou espiritualmente presente. E em nome do nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo já decidi o que deverá fazer-se. 4 Devem convocar a assembleia da igreja, o poder do Senhor Jesus estará nessa reunião, e eu mesmo, em espírito, também estarei junto. 5 E então entreguem esse homem a Satanás, para este o levar à beira da morte e assim haver a esperança de ele buscar a salvação, no dia em que o nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo voltar.

6 Não é bom que se gabem da vossa espiritualidade e que uma tal situação se mantenha. Não se dão conta que, ao tolerar-se que uma só pessoa continue a pecar, em breve todas as outras serão afetadas? Como é costume dizer-se: basta um pouco de levedura para fermentar toda a massa. 7 Limpem-se pois de toda essa velha levedura; tornem-se uma massa sem fermento, para que todos se mantenham incontaminados. Cristo, o cordeiro da nossa Páscoa, foi sacrificado em nosso lugar. 8 Celebremos pois essa festa espiritual, deixando para trás o fermento da maldade, a antiga vida, podre de tanto vício, de tanto pecado. Em vez disso, participemos nessa festa espiritual com o pão da sinceridade e da verdade.

9 Já antes vos tinha escrito que não se misturassem com gente imoral. 10 Mas não me estava a referir aos descrentes que vivem na imoralidade sexual, que são gananciosos, ladrões e que se entregam à idolatria, porque então seria necessário sairem do mundo. 11 O que eu queria dizer é que não devem associar-se com alguém que, dizendo-se cristão, continua a viver na imoralidade, na avareza, na idolatria, na maledicência, em bebedeiras e no roubo. Nem sequer comam com tais pessoas.

12 Não nos compete a nós julgar os de fora, mas é sem dúvida nossa obrigação julgar os que estão dentro da igreja e que estão a pecar dessa maneira. 13 Deus julgará os que estão de fora. E as Escrituras dizem: “Tirem o mau do vosso meio.”

Dealing With a Case of Incest

5 It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that even pagans do not tolerate: A man is sleeping with his father’s wife.(A) 2 And you are proud! Shouldn’t you rather have gone into mourning(B) and have put out of your fellowship(C) the man who has been doing this? 3 For my part, even though I am not physically present, I am with you in spirit.(D) As one who is present with you in this way, I have already passed judgment in the name of our Lord Jesus(E) on the one who has been doing this. 4 So when you are assembled and I am with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present, 5 hand this man over(F) to Satan(G) for the destruction of the flesh,[a][b] so that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord.(H)

6 Your boasting is not good.(I) Don’t you know that a little yeast(J) leavens the whole batch of dough?(K) 7 Get rid of the old yeast, so that you may be a new unleavened batch—as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.(L) 8 Therefore let us keep the Festival, not with the old bread leavened with malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread(M) of sincerity and truth.

9 I wrote to you in my letter not to associate(N) with sexually immoral people— 10 not at all meaning the people of this world(O) who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world. 11 But now I am writing to you that you must not associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister[c](P) but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater(Q) or slanderer, a drunkard or swindler. Do not even eat with such people.(R)

12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside(S) the church? Are you not to judge those inside?(T) 13 God will judge those outside. “Expel the wicked person from among you.”[d](U)
