Verse 29
1 Corinthians 12:29. Are all Apostles?— It appears that this invidious temper was not extirpated from among the Corinthians, even by this just and lively expostulation: for Clemens Romanus, writing to them many years after, complains of its continued prevalence, as leading them to neglect a due regard for those presbyters who were fixed by the divine direction among them, and to throw them out of their episcopal office. See his epistle to the Corinthians, sect. 44.
