1 Corinthians 1:7

“So that ye come behind in no gift a detail of the gifts which were bestowed on them is made in ( gifts to any of the churches: ; or “the revelation” ; who will appear a second time, come in great cease and be of no more use, and when they must all be accounted for; and improved to the interest and service of Christ; who will surely come again, intrusted them with; and whose coming is to be believed, loved, looked,”

“ye come behind--are inferior to other Christians elsewhere [GROTIUS]. in no gift--not that all had all gifts, but different persons among them had different gifts (Co1 12:4, &c.). waiting for . . . coming of . . . Christ--The crowning proof of their "coming behind in no gift." Faith, hope, and love, are all exercised herein (compare Ti2 4:8; Tit 2:13). "Leaving to others their MEMENTO MORI (remember death), do thou earnestly cherish this joyous expectation of the Lord's coming" [BENGEL]. The Greek verb implies, "to expect constantly, not only for a certain time, but even to the end till the expected event happens" (Rom 8:19, [TITTMANN, Greek Synonyms of the New Testament]).”

“So that - God has so abundantly endowed you with his favors. Ye come behind - ὑστερεῖσθαι hustereisthai. You are not missing, or deficient. The word is usually applied to destitution, want, or poverty; and the declaration here is synonymous with what he had said, 1 Corinthians 1:5, that they abounded in everything. In no gift - In no favor, or gracious endowment. The word used here χάρισμα charisma, does not refer necessarily to extraordinary and miraculous endowments, but includes also all the kindnesses of God toward them in producing peace of mind, constancy, humility, etc. And the apostle meant evidently to say that they possessed, in rich abundance, all those endowments which were…”

“Waiting - With earnest desire. For the glorious revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ - A sure mark of a true or false Christian, to long for, or dread, this revelation. 1 Corinthians 1:8”

“1:7 every spiritual gift: See 12:8-10, 28.”
