Contextual Overview

²⁶ Howe is it then brethren? When ye come together, euery one of you hath a psalme, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a reuelation, hath interpretation. Let all thynges be done vnto edifiyng. ²⁷ Yf any man speake with tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course, and let one interprete. ²⁸ But yf there be no interpreter, let him kepe scilence in the Churche, and let him speake to hym selfe, and to God. ²⁹ Let the prophetes speake two or three, and let the other iudge. ³⁰ If any reuelation be made to another that sitteth by, let ye first holde his peace. ³¹ For ye may all prophesie one by one, that all may learne, and all may haue comfort. ³² And the spirites of the prophetes, are subiect to the prophetes. ³³ For God is not [the aucthour] of confusion, but of peace, as in all Churches of the saintes.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But if there be no interpreter,.... None that has the gift of interpretation of divers tongues, and he that speaks with them has not that, which was sometimes the case:

let him keep silence in the church; let him not make use of his gift publicly before the whole congregation, since without an interpreter it will be entirely useless:

and let him speak to himself, and to God; he may make use of his gift to his own edification, and to the glory of God, by speaking with a low voice, or in his heart, which he himself may be conscious of, and God the searcher of hearts, and that knows all languages, fully understands; and so may be edified himself, and God may be glorified by him; whereas, if he was to use it openly and publicly, it would not only be unprofitable, but an hinderance to others: or he might retire to his own house, and there exercise it by himself, and in the presence of God, when it might be of some use and advantage to himself, but would be highly improper to bring it into the church, or public congregation; for instead of assisting, it would but dampen their devotion, and therefore it was very reasonable he should be silent there.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

But if there be no interpreter - If there be no one present who has the gift of interpretation.

And let him speak to himself and to God - See the note at 1 Corinthians 14:2, note at 1 Corinthians 14:4. Let him commune with himself, and with God; let him meditate on the truths which are revealed to him, and let him in secret express his desires to God.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 28. But if there be no interpreter — If there be none present who can give the proper sense of this Hebrew reading and speaking, then let him keep silence, and not occupy the time of the Church, by speaking in a language which only himself can understand.
