The Bible Knowledge Commentary Author and Readers

But it was not only in sexual matters that the Corinthians were still children of their age. They were also easily impressed by external qualities such as eloquence and superior human wisdom (1 Cor. 2) and spectacular gifts such as tongues (1 Cor. 12–14). They walked by sight rather than by faith (cf. 2 Cor. 5:7), a fact Paul sought to amend by his correspondence and visits.
