St. John Chrysostom on First Corinthians, Volume 1

St. John Chrysostom (c. 349 - c. 407)
Translated by Hubert Kestell Cornish (1803 - 1873) and John Medley (1804 - 1892)

The First Epistle to the Corinthians is attributed to St. Paul the Apostle and a co-author named Sosthenes, and is addressed to the materially wealthy Christian church in Corinth. The letter can be divided as follows:

1) Thanksgiving (1:4–9)
2) Division in Corinth (1:10–4:21)
3) Immorality in Corinth (5:1–6:20)
4) Difficulties in Corinth (7:1–14:40)
5) The Doctrine of the Resurrection (15:1–58)
6) Closing Remarks (16:1–24).

In general, the letter is rich in instruction and covers many relevant issues for Christians today. This collection of St. John Chrysostom homilies on the letter gives us a chance to hear one of the greatest minds of the early church expound on its contents. - Summary by ancientchristian
