A.T. Robertson Commentary 1 Corinthians 12:4

"Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit." — 1 Corinthians 12:4 (ASV)

Diversities (διαιρεσεις). Old word for distinctions, differences, distributions, from διαιρεω, to distribute, as διαιρουν (dividing, distributing) in verse 11. Only here in the N.T.

Of gifts (χαρισματων). Late word and chiefly in Paul (cf. Romans 12:6) in N.T. (except 1 Peter 4:19), but some examples in papyri. It means a favour (from χαριζομα) bestowed or received without any merit as in Ro 1:11.
