1 Corinthians 10:27

“If any of them that believe not, etc.] In Christ, and make no profession of faith in him; but are infidels to his person, office, grace, righteousness, Gospel, and ordinances, as there were many such at Corinth: “bid you” to a feast; invite you to dine or sup with them in their own houses: and ye be disposed to go; the apostle does not lay any commands upon them to go, or not go, but leaves them to their own will, inclination, and discretion; for as circumstances might be, it might be either proper or improper to listen to an invitation from such a quarter; but if they were inclined, and did think fit to go, which they might without sin; for as it is lawful to trade, so to eat and drink with…”

“ye be disposed to go--tacitly implying, they would be as well not to go, but yet not forbidding them to go (Co1 10:9) [GROTIUS].

In that case, the Christian should refrain from eating it out of consideration for the conscience of the other person, who might misinterpret it or be hurt by believing that such eating honors the god to whom the meat has been sacrificed (see 8:7, 9-10; cp. Rom 14:13-15, 20-23).”

“bid: Co1 5:9-11; Luk 5:29, Luk 5:30, Luk 15:23, Luk 19:7 whatsoever: Luk 10:7 for: Co1 10:25; Co2 1:13, Co2 4:2, Co2 5:11 1 Corinthians 10:28”
