Albert Barnes Commentary 1 Corinthians 12:23

"and those [parts] of the body, which we think to be less honorable, upon these we bestow more abundant honor; and our uncomely [parts] have more abundant comeliness;" — 1 Corinthians 12:23 (ASV)

We bestow more abundant honour. A marginal note says, "Put on." The words rendered "abundant honour" here refer to clothing. We bestow upon them more attention and honour than we do on the face that is considered attractive, and that is not covered and adorned as the other parts of the body are.

More abundant comeliness. We adorn and decorate the body with fine apparel. Those parts that decency requires us to conceal, we not only cover but also strive as far as we can to adorn them. The face, meanwhile, we leave uncovered. The idea is that, similarly, we should not despise or disregard those members of the church who are of lower rank or who are less favoured than others with spiritual endowments.
