This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
But if any man say unto you (ean de tis humin eipēi). Condition of third class. Suppose at such a banquet a “weak” brother makes the point to you: “This hath been offered in sacrifice” (touto hierothuton estin). Hierothuton, late word in Plutarch, rare in inscriptions and papyri, only here in N.T.
Eat not (mē esthiete). Present imperative with mē prohibiting the habit of eating then. Pertinent illustration to the point of doing what is expedient and edifying.
That shewed it (ton mēnusanta). First aorist active articular participle (accusative case because of dia) from mēnuō, old verb, to point out, to disclose. See Luk 20:37.
