1 Corinthians 10:18 in context

  1. 16The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not a communion of the body of Christ?
  2. 17seeing that we, who are many, are one bread, one body: for we all partake of the one bread.
  3. 18Behold Israel after the flesh: have not they that eat the sacrifices communion with the altar?
  4. 19What say I then? that a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?
  5. 20But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have communion with demons.
