This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

7. φανέρωσις. Properly, the act of manifesting. But here it means the manifestation itself.

πρὸς τὸ συμφέρον. God’s object is ever the well-being of man. If man is to become one spirit with God (ch. 1Co 6:17), his object must be the same. See notes on ch. 1Co 6:12, 1Co 8:1; 1Co 8:9-13, 1Co 10:23. The Editors read συμφέρον here, σύμφορον in ch. 1Co 7:35, 1Co 10:33.
