Contextual Overview

¹⁷ But as God hath distributed to euery man, as the Lorde hath called euery one, so let hym walke, and so ordeyne I in all Churches. ¹⁸ Is any man called beyng circumcised? let him not adde vncircumcision: Is any called vncircumcised? let him not be circumcised. ¹⁹ Circumcision is nothing, and vncircumcision is nothing, but the keping of the commaundementes of God. ²⁰ Let euery man abyde in the same calling, wherein he was called. ²¹ Art thou called a seruaunt? care not for it: Neuerthelesse, if thou mayest be free, vse it rather. ²² For he that is called in the Lord [being] a seruaunt, is the Lordes free man: Lykewyse also he that is called [beyng] free, is Christes seruaunt. ²³ Ye are dearely bought, be not ye the seruauntes of men. ²⁴ Brethren, let euery man wherin he is called, therin abyde with God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Brethren, let every man wherein he is called, The apostle repeats the advice given in 1 Corinthians 7:20 and prefaces it with that tender and affectionate appellation, "brethren", the more to engage them to attend to it; showing also that whatever difference there was in their civil state and condition, there was none in their religious one; they were all brethren, one of another, they were his brethren, yea, even the brethren of Christ:

therein abide with God; that is, abide in his civil calling and station of life, be it what it will, as knowing he is in that state it is the will of God he should be in; and as in the sight of God, who knows all men, and what is best for them, and who sees and observes all their actions and conduct of life; and with whom there is no respect of persons, of bond or free, of masters or servants; they are admitted equally to enjoy the same favours and privileges in the house of God; have the same access to the throne of grace, and enjoy the same communion with God; and therefore should be content in their present situation, discharging the several duties of their station aright, and exercise a good conscience both towards God and man.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 24. Let every man - abide with God. — Let him live to God in whatsoever station he is placed by Providence. If he be a slave, God will be with him even in his slavery, if he be faithful to the grace which he has received. It is very likely that some of the slaves at Corinth, who had been converted to Christianity, had been led to think that their Christian privileges absolved them from the necessity of continuing slaves; or, at least, brought them on a level with their Christian masters. A spirit of this kind might have soon led to confusion and insubordination, and brought scandals into the Church. It was therefore a very proper subject for the apostle to interfere in; and to his authority, the persons concerned would doubtless respectfully bow.
