Forgive the OffenderThe unnamed offender, {{lang-gr|τοιοῦτος}}, toioutos, "such a one" (KJV), "a man in his position" (J. B. Phillips' translation) is the man who, in {{bibleverse|1|Corinthians|5:1|NKJV}} "has his father’s wife".[1] Verse 17 For we are not, as so many, peddling the word of God; but as of sincerity, but as from God, we speak in the sight of God in Christ.[2] - "We are not, as so many": Paul separates himself from the false apostles, who are "many", forming "great swarms of false teachers" in the early times of Christianity (cf. {{bibleref2|1 John|2:18|NKJV}}; {{bibleref2|1 John|4:1|NKJV}}). Some copies read, "as the rest", as the Syriac and Arabic versions.[3]
- "Peddling the word of God" (KJV: which corrupt the word of God): that is the Scriptures in general may be corrupted by "false glosses and human mixtures." The Septuagint translates the last clause of {{bibleref2|Isaiah|1:22|NKJV}} oi kaphloi sou misgousi ton (oinon udati, "thy vintners mix wine with water"), in a moral or spiritual sense. The Syriac version reads the words Nygzmmd, "who mix the word of God."[3]
- "We speak ... in Christ": which is "in the name of Christ, of or concerning him, and him only."[3]
