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

But brother goeth to law with brother,.... The relation meant is spiritual; it was usual for members of churches to be called brethren, they professing to be born again of the same Father, and belonging to the same family under Christ, the son, firstborn, and master of it: and a very wicked and shameful thing it was, that persons in such a relation, being of such a family, should go to law with one another at all:

and that before the unbelievers; which is an aggravation of their sin and folly. The apostle before calls them "unjust", now "infidels", such as had no faith in Christ, disbelieved the Messiah, and denied the whole Gospel, and therefore no faith or confidence should be put in them; for, generally speaking, such as have no faith, are not only wicked, but unreasonable men, men of no reason, conscience, justice, and equity; and therefore very improper persons for believers to bring their causes before.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

But brother ... - One Christian goes to law with another. This is designed as a reproof. This was wrong:

1. Because they ought rather to take wrong and suffer themselves to be injured 1 Corinthians 6:7;
2. Because they might have chosen some persons to settle the matter by arbitration without a formal trial; and,
3. Because the civil constitution would have allowed them to have settled all their differences without a lawsuit.

Josephus says that the Romans (who were now masters of Corinth) permitted the Jews in foreign countries to decide private affairs, where nothing capital was in question, among themselves. And Dr. Lardner observes, that the Christians might have availed themselves of this permission to have settled their disputes in the same manner. Credibility, vol. 1:p. 165.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Corinthians 6:6. Brother goeth to law with brother — One Christian sues another at law! This is almost as great a scandal as can exist in a Christian society. Those in a religious community who will not submit to a proper arbitration, made by persons among themselves, should be expelled from the Church of God.
