People's Commentary (NT)
1 Corinthians 12:12
The body is one, and hath many members. The unity of these diverse
gifts, all given by the same Spirit, is illustrated by the human body,
which has many members and organs with different offices, but all parts
of one body. No member could claim that it was not of the body because
it is not the eye, the ear, or some other organ. Each is a part, each
necessary, each set where God pleased, and all taken together make up
the body.
So also [is] Christ. The spiritual body of Christ, the church.
