1 Cor. 11:16      1 Cor. 11:18

First letter to the Corinthians 11:17

[In the early church, they celebrated "agape," a communal love feast where they socialized and ate. The meal probably ended with the celebration of the Lord's Supper. People gathered in the homes of those who had larger houses. Some of them were Chloe, Stephanas, and Gaius, see 1 Cor. 1:10; 16:15; Rom. 16:23. Roman houses at this time often had two rooms: a front room or larger gathering hall, atrium, which could accommodate 30-40 people. There was also a finer room, triclinium, with about 10 seats. Paul ties this passage together with the phrase that he "cannot praise them," see verses 17 and 22. In the middle, verse 20, he again emphasizes this main point that this is "not" the Lord's Supper.]
Now when I give these instructions, I do not praise you, for your meetings do more harm than good.
