I mean that one or other of you cries out "I am of Paul, and I of Apollos, and I of Cephas,

who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye have received faith according to the divine gifts imparted to each of them?

I have planted, Apollos watered: but God gave the increase.

whether Paul or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come;

These things, my brethren, I have represented to you in my own person, and that of Apollos, out of respect to you: to show you how to moderate your esteem by the rule prescrib'd, that you may not be transported in favour of one rather than another.

as to brother Apollos, I earnestly entreat him to make you a visit, with the brethren: but he has not the least mind to it at present; however, he will be with you when a fit occasion offers.

while one cries I am Paul's disciple, and another, I am Apollo's, are ye not vicious?
