Greek Commentary for 1 Corinthians 11:19
Since moral conditions are so bad among you (cf. chapters 1 to 6). Cf. Matthew 18:7. [source]
The schisms naturally become factions or parties. Cf. strifes “Heresy is theoretical schism, schism practical heresy.” Cf. Titus 3:10; 2 Peter 2:1. In Paul only here and Galatians 5:20. That (hina). God‘s purpose in these factions makes the proved ones (αιρεσεις hoi dokimoi) become manifest (ινα phaneroi). “These οι δοκιμοι haireseis are a magnet attracting unsound and unsettled minds” (Findlay). It has always been so. Instance so-called Christian Science, Russellism, New Thought, etc., today. [source]

See on Acts 24:5. The word is commonly used in an indifferent sense, as signifying merely a school or party. So Acts 15:5; Acts 28:22. Here, however, in a bad sense - schismatic sect, as in 1 Corinthians 11:19. [source]
Literally, “the existing sect of the Sadducees” or “the sect which is of the Sadducees,” η hē being the article, not the relative. αιρεσις Hairesis means a choosing, from αιρεομαι haireomai to take for oneself, to choose, then an opinion chosen or tenet (possibly 2 Peter 2:1), then parties or factions (Galatians 5:20; 1 Corinthians 11:19; possibly 2 Peter 2:1). It is applied here to the Sadducees; to the Pharisees in Acts 15:5; Acts 26:5; to the Christians in Acts 24:5-14; Acts 28:22. Already Luke has stated that the Sadducees started the persecution of Peter and John (Acts 4:1.). Now it is extended to “the apostles” as a whole since Christianity has spread more rapidly in Jerusalem than before it began. [source]
“Acceptable to men.” Stands the test for men. See note on 1 Corinthians 11:19; 2 Corinthians 10:18; 2 Timothy 2:15. [source]
The tried and true (1 Corinthians 11:19; 2 Corinthians 10:18; 2 Corinthians 13:7). Them which are of the household of Aristobulus (τους εκ των Αριστοβουλου tous ek tōn Aristoboulou). The younger Aristobulus was a grandson of Herod the Great. Lightfoot suggests that some of the servants in this household had become Christians, Aristobulus being dead. [source]
More correctly, factions. From ἔριθος ahired servant. Ἑριθία is, primarily, labor for hire (see Romans href="/desk/?q=ro+16:17&sr=1">Romans 16:17. Once in lxx, 1Corinthians href="/desk/?q=1co+11:19&sr=1">1 Corinthians 11:19. See on 2 Peter 2:1. Parties, into which divisions crystallize. [source]
First aorist active infinitive of παριστημι paristēmi as in Colossians 1:22, Colossians 1:28. Approved unto God (δοκιμον τωι τεωι dokimon tōi theōi). Dative case τεωι theōi with δοκιμον dokimon predicate accusative, old adjective (from δεχομαι dechomai), for which see note on 1 Corinthians 11:19; 2 Corinthians 10:18. A workman See 2 Corinthians 11:3; Philemon 3:2. That needeth not to be ashamed (ανεπαισχυντον anepaischunton). Late double compound verbal adjective (α a privative, επαισχυνω epaischunō), in Josephus and here alone. Handling aright Present active participle of ορτοτομεω orthotomeō late and rare compound (ορτοτομος orthotomos), cutting straight, ορτος orthos and τεμνω temnō), here only in N.T. It occurs in Proverbs 3:6; Proverbs 11:5 for making straight paths (οδους hodous) with which compare Hebrews 12:13 and “the Way” in Acts 9:2. Theodoret explains it to mean ploughing a straight furrow. Parry argues that the metaphor is the stone mason cutting the stones straight since τεμνω temnō and ορτος orthos are so used. Since Paul was a tent-maker and knew how to cut straight the rough camel-hair cloth, why not let that be the metaphor? Certainly plenty of exegesis is crooked enough (crazy-quilt patterns) to call for careful cutting to set it straight. [source]

Lit., heresies of destruction. Rev., destructive heresies. Heresy is a transcript of αἵρεσις , the primary meaning of which is choice; so that a heresy is, strictly, the choice of an opinion contrary to that usually received; thence transferred to the body of those who profess such opinions, and therefore a sect. So Rev., in margin, sects of perdition. Commonly in this sense in the New Testament (Acts 5:17; Acts 15:5; Acts 28:22), though the Rev. has an odd variety in its marginal renderings. See Acts 24:14; 1 Corinthians 11:19; Galatians 5:20. The rendering heretical doctrines seems to agree better with the context; false teachers bringing in sects is awkward. [source]
Only here in New Testament. The kindred adjective occurs Galatians 2:4, “false brethrenprivily brought in ” ( παρεισάκτους )The metaphor is of spies or traitors introducing themselves into an enemy's camp. Compare Judges 1:4, crept in unawares. The verb means, literally, to bring ( ἄγειν ) into ( εἰς ) by the side of ( παρά )Damnable heresies ( αἱρέσεις ἀπωλείας )Lit., heresies of destruction.
