Contextual Overview
12 For, just as, the body, is one, and yet hath many members, but, all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so, also, the Christ; - 13 For, even to one Spirit, we all, into one body, have been immersed, - whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free, - and, all, of one Spirit, have been caused to drink. 14 For, the body also, is not one member, but many: 15 Though the foot should say - Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body, Is it, therefore, not, of the body? 16 And, though the ear should say - Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body, Is it, therefore, not, of the body? 17 If, the whole body, were, an eye, where were the hearing? If, the whole were, hearing, where were, the smelling? 18 But, now, hath God set the members, each one of them in the body, even as he pleased. 19 But, if they all had been one member, Where had been, the body? 20 Now, however there are many members, yet one body; 21 Andthe eye cannot say unto the hand - I have no need of thee, - nor, again, the head, unto the feet - I have no need of you: -

Gill's Notes on the Bible
But now are they many members,.... Of different make and shape, in different parts and places, and of different use and service:
yet but one body; all are united together, and make up one complete body, and which without each of them would not be perfect: so there are many members in the body of Christ, the church; some are teachers, others are hearers; some give, and others receive; but all make up but one church, of which Christ is the head; nor can anyone of them be spared; was anyone wanting, even the meanest, there would be a deficiency, and the church would not be the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
