This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

22. τὰ δοκοῦντα. Not those which are, as Chrysostom remarks, but those which are thought to be so. This remark applies with still greater force to the next verse.

ἀσθενέστερα. The more feeble parts of the body, those, that is, which are most delicate, least able to take care of themselves, are by no means the least valuable. The eye or the brain, for instance, are more necessary to the well-being of the body than other stronger and ruder organs.
