Contextual Overview

1 Dare any of you, hauing businesse with another, be iudged vnder the vniust, and not rather vnder ye saintes? 2 Do ye not knowe that the saintes shall iudge the worlde? If the worlde shalbe iudged by you, are ye vnworthy to iudge the smallest matters? 3 Know ye not howe that we shal iudge the angels? Howe much more thinges that parteyne to this lyfe? 4 If then ye haue iudgement of thinges parteynyng to this lyfe, set vp them to iudge whiche are least esteemed in the Churche. 5 I speake it to your shame: Is it so that there is not a wyse man among you? no not one that can iudge betwene brother and brother? 6 But one brother goeth to law with another, and that vnder the vnbeleuers? 7 Nowe therefore there is vtterly a fault among you, because ye go to lawe one with another: Why rather suffer ye not wrong? why rather suffer ye not harme? 8 Nay, ye your selues do wrong, and do harme, and that to your brethren.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

I speak to your shame,.... Not that they did set such persons to judge, but that they did not; and instead of so doing went to law with their brethren before the unjust:

is it so that there is not a wise man among you? this also the apostle speaks to their shame, who had so much gloried in their wisdom, and boasted of their parts and abilities to the contempt of others, and even of the apostle himself; and yet acted as if there was not a wise man among them capable of judging and determining trivial matters, but they must carry them before unconverted persons:

no not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren? for though the above mentioned benches consisted of three persons, yet the contending parties might choose one man to be an arbitrator and judge between them. The rule with the Jews was this f;

"pecuniary judgments are by three, but if he is authorised or approved by the majority, דן אפילו יחידי, "he may judge alone". Says R. Nachman, as I judge pecuniary judgments alone; and so says R. Chaijah, as I judge pecuniary punishments alone.''

f T. Bab. Sanhed. fol. 5. 1. Maimon. Hilch. Sanhed. c. 5. sect. 8.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

I speak to your shame - I declare that which is a reproach to you, that your matters of dispute are carried before pagan tribunals.

Is it so ... - Can it be that in the Christian church - the church collected in refined and enlightened Corinth - there is not a single member so wise, intelligent and prudent that his brethren may have confidence in him, and refer their causes to him? Can this be the case in a church that boasts so much of its wisdom, and that prides itself so much in the number and qualifications of its intelligent members?

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Corinthians 6:5. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? — Have you none among yourselves that can be arbitrators of the differences which arise, that you go to the heathen tribunals?
