A.T. Robertson Commentary 1 Corinthians 12:18

"But now hath God set the members each one of them in the body, even as it pleased him." — 1 Corinthians 12:18 (ASV)

But now (νυν δε). But as things are, in contrast to that absurdity.

Hath God set (ο θεος εθετο). Second aorist middle indicative. God did it and of himself.

Even as it pleased him (καθως ηθελησεν). Why challenge God's will? Cf. Romans 9:20.
