'Eat' in the Bible

But now I have written to you not to associate with any so-called brother, if he is a sexually immoral person or a greedy person or an idolater or an abusive person or a drunkard or a swindler--with such a person not even to eat.

But this knowledge [is] not in everyone. But some, being accustomed until now to the idol, eat [this food] as food sacrificed to idols, and their conscience, [because it] is weak, is defiled.

But food does not bring us close to God. For neither if we eat do we have more, nor if we do not eat do we lack.

Therefore, if food causes my brother to sin, I will never eat meat {forever}, in order that I may not cause my brother to sin.

Do we not have the right to eat and drink?

Who ever serves as a soldier at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat the fruit of it? Who shepherds a flock and does not drink from the milk of the flock?

Do you not know that those performing the holy services eat the things from the temple, [and] those attending to the altar have a share with the altar?

Consider Israel according to the flesh: are not the ones who eat the sacrifices sharers in the altar?

Eat everything that is sold in the meat market, {asking no questions} for the sake of the conscience,

If any of the unbelievers invites you, and you want to go, eat everything that is set before you, {asking no questions} for the sake of the conscience.

But if someone says to you, "This is offered to idols," do not eat [it], for the sake of that one who informed [you] and the conscience.

Therefore, [when] you come together in the same [place], it is not to eat the Lord's supper.

For [when you] eat [it], each one of you goes ahead to take his own supper, and one is hungry and another is drunk.

For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.

So then, my brothers, [when you] come together in order to eat [the Lord's supper], wait for one another.

If anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest you come together for judgment. And I will give directions about the remaining [matters] whenever I come.
