Charles Spurgeon Commentary 1 Corinthians 11:33

"Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, wait one for another." — 1 Corinthians 11:33 (ASV)

Therefore, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

How gently Paul talks to these Corinthians! They deserve to be scolded, but he is very tender with them. He says, "If you must come together in this way, at least have the good manners to stop for one another; and if you do come to the communion of the Lord, treat it with that respect and reverence which it deserves."
