This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

1Co 10:22. Παραζηλοῦμεν) do we provoke to jealousy? namely, by idolatry, 1Co 10:7; Exo 20:5. The kindred word is הלאות, ἀγῶνα παρέχειν, to cause one a conflict, to weary out, Isa 7:13. So Deu 32:21,-αὐτοὶ παρεζήλωσάν με ἐπʼ οὐ θεῷ, they have moved me to jealousy with that which is no god.-ἰσχυρότεροι, stronger) so that we may flee from His jealousy when kindled? [The weaker party is provoked without danger; but it is different in the stronger.-V. g.]
