gave thanks for it, and broke it in pieces, saying, "This is my body that is for you. Keep doing this in memory of me."

For just as the body is one and yet has many parts, and all the parts of the body, though many, form a single body, so it is with the Messiah.

For by one Spirit all of us Jews and Greeks, slaves and free were baptized into one body and were all privileged to drink from one Spirit.

If the foot says, "Since I'm not a hand, I'm not part of the body," that does not make it any less a part of the body, does it?

And if the ear says, "Since I'm not an eye, I'm not part of the body," that does not make it any less a part of the body, does it?

and the parts of the body that we think are less honorable are treated with special honor, and we make our less attractive parts more attractive.

However, our attractive parts don't need this. But God has put the body together and has given special honor to the parts that lack it,

so that there might be no disharmony in the body, but that its parts should have the same concern for each other.
