Context — Warnings Against Idolatrygenerated
1 Corinthians 10:21 is part of a larger discourse where Paul addresses the issue of eating food sacrificed to idols. He emphasizes that Christians cannot engage in both the worship of the Lord and the worship of demons. This teaching is crucial as it highlights the exclusivity of one's commitment to God, contrasting the sacred and the profane.

The Key Word — μετέχειν, metechōgenerated
The verb μετέχω (transliterated as metechō) means 'to partake' or 'to share.' It is derived from the prefix μετ- (with) and the root ἔχω (to have). The word conveys the idea of participating in something together, whether in a meal or in a spiritual context.
In this verse, it refers specifically to sharing in the table of the Lord, which symbolizes fellowship and communion with God. The context implies that such participation cannot coexist with sharing in the table of demons, underscoring the need for a clear choice in one's spiritual commitments.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as 'You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons too; you cannot partake in the table of the Lord and the table of demons too.' This wording is consistent across several translations.
However, the BBE translates it as 'you may not take part in the table of the Lord and the table of evil spirits,' which emphasizes the nature of demons as evil spirits.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb in the verse is δύνασθε, you are able, which governs two clauses: one about drinking and one about partaking. Each clause presents a negative statement about the impossibility of engaging in both the Lord's and the demons' tables.
The structure highlights a parallelism in the two prohibitions, reinforcing the idea that one cannot mix sacred and profane practices.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
τραπέζα appears in the Septuagint to refer to a table, most commonly in the context of meals or offerings, such as in Exodus 25:30. It carries a similar meaning in the New Testament, where it denotes a place of fellowship.
δαιμόνιον is used in the Septuagint to describe evil spirits, linking the concept of demons to the worship practices of the surrounding cultures, as seen in Deuteronomy 32:17.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
1 Corinthians 10:21 teaches that believers cannot drink from both the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. This means that one cannot participate in the sacred fellowship of the Lord while also engaging in the worship of evil spirits. Paul emphasizes the need for a clear choice in spiritual matters.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
Drinking from the cup of the Lord refers to participating in the communion and fellowship that believers have with Jesus Christ, symbolizing His sacrifice and the new covenant.
Paul mentions demons to warn the Corinthians against participating in pagan worship, which is incompatible with their commitment to Christ.
Partaking in the table of demons implies engaging in practices that are contrary to the faith and can lead to spiritual compromise and separation from God.
To ensure you are partaking only in the table of the Lord, focus on building your relationship with God through prayer, studying Scripture, and participating in a community of faith that honors Him.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- In what ways can I identify and avoid influences that lead me away from my relationship with God?
- How can I deepen my understanding of what it means to partake in the Lord's table?
- What practical steps can I take to ensure my commitments reflect my faith in Christ?
- How can I encourage others to choose fellowship with the Lord over worldly influences?

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
non potestis calicem Domini bibere, et calicem dæmoniorum ; non potestis mensæ Domini participes esse, et mensæ dæmoniorum.
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.

The Greek word οὐ (transliterated as ou) is a primary negative particle meaning 'not' or 'no.' It is used to negate verbs or statements, often appearing in various forms depending on the following sound. In the New Testament, it frequently serves to deny facts and is distinct from another negative particle, μή (transliterated as mē), which is used for prohibitions or wishes.

δύναμαι, transliterated as dunamai, means 'to be able' or 'to have power.' It can refer to personal ability, permission, or opportunity. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, such as in Matthew 6:24 and Mark 2:7. The lexicons indicate that it can be used with an infinitive or an accusative, but there is some variation in the forms and usages noted in different sources.

a'-b'-l: The Greek dunamai, "to have power," may refer either to inherent strength, or to the absence of in external obstacles, or to what may be allowable or permitted. The Greek ischuo, as in Lu 13:24; Joh 21:6, refers always to the first of the above meanings. The use of the word as an adjective the King James Version of 2Co 3:6, is misleading, and has been properly changed in the Revised Version (British and American) into "sufficient as ministers," i.e. "hath fitted us to be ministers."

The Greek word ποτήριον (poterion) means a drinking cup or wine cup, derived from ποτήρ (potēr). It is used in the New Testament to refer to both the physical vessel and its contents, often in a metaphorical sense related to divine experiences, such as suffering or blessings. The word appears in various contexts, including the Eucharist and references to God's providence.

Cup
A wine-cup (Gen. 40:11, 21), various forms of which are found on Assyrian and Egyptian monuments. All Solomon’s drinking vessels were of gold (1 Kings 10: 21). The cups mentioned in the New Testament were made after Roman and Greek models, and were sometimes of gold (Rev. 17:4).
The art of divining by means of a cup was practiced in Egypt (Gen. 44:2-17), and in the East generally.
The “cup of salvation” (Ps. 116:13) is the cup of thanksgiving for the great salvation. The “cup of consolation” (Jer. 16:7) refers to the custom of friends sending viands and wine to console relatives in mourning (
The cups of the Jews, whether of metal or earthenware, were possibly borrowed, in point of shape and design, from Egypt and from the Phoenicians, who were celebrated in that branch of workmanship. Egyptian cups were of various shapes, either with handles or without them. In Solomon’s time all his drinking vessels were of gold, none of silver. (1 Kings 10:21) Babylon is compared to a golden cup. (Jeremiah 51:7) The great laver, or "sea," was made with a rim like the rim of a cup (cos), with flowers of lilies," (1 Kings 7:26) a form which the Persepolitan cups resemble. The cups of the New Testament were often no doubt formed on Greek and Roman models. They were sometimes of gold. (
This word is taken in Scripture both in a proper and in a figurative sense. In a proper sense, it signifies a common cup, of horn, or some precious metal, Ge 40:13 44:2 1Ki 7:26, such as is used for drinking out of at meals; or a cup of ceremony, used at solemn and religious meals-as at the Passover, when the father of the family pronounced certain blessings over the cup, and having tasted it, passed it round to the company and his whole family, who partook of it, 1Co 10:16. In a figurative sense, a cup is spoken of as filled with the portion given to one by divine providence, Ps 11:6 16:5; with the blessings of life and of grace,

κύριος is a Greek word meaning 'lord' or 'master,' derived from the concept of authority. It is used in various contexts, referring to God, Jesus, and earthly masters. In the New Testament, it often denotes divine authority, as seen in verses like Matthew 12:8. The term can also express respect when addressing others, such as teachers or magistrates.
A MAN, according to the later Greek grammarians, was δεσπότης in respect of his slaves (Plato, Legg. vi. 756 e), therefore οἰκοδεσπότης, but κύριος in regard of his wife and children ; who in speaking either to him or of him, would give him this title of honour; “as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord” (κύριον αὐτὸν καλοῦσα, I Pet. ili. 6: ef. Plutarch, De Virt. Mul. 5. vv. Μίκκα καὶ Meyoro). There is a certain truth in this distinction. Undoubtedly there lies in κύριος the sense of an authority owning limitations—moral limitations it may be; it is implied too that the wielder of this authority will not exclude, in wielding it, a consideration of their good over whom it is exercised; while the δεσπότης exercises a more unrestricted power and absolute domination, confessing no such limitations or restraints. He who addresses another as δέσποτα, puts an emphasis of submission into his…

Lord
There are various Hebrew and Greek words so rendered.
(1.) Heb. Jehovah, has been rendered in the English Bible LORD, printed in small capitals. This is the proper name of the God of the Hebrews. The form “Jehovah” is retained only in Ex. 6:3; Ps. 83:18; Isa. 12:2; 26:4, both in the Authorized and the Revised Version.
(2.) Heb. ‘adon, means one possessed of absolute control. It denotes a master, as of slaves (Gen. 24:14, 27), or a ruler of his subjects (45:8), or a husband, as lord of his wife (18:12).
The old plural form of this Hebrew word is ’adonai. From a superstitious reverence for the name “Jehovah,” the Jews, in reading their Scriptures, whenever that name…
[GOD]
This name belongs to God by preeminence; and in this sense ought never to be given to any creature. Jesus Christ, as the Messiah, the Son of God, and equal with the Father, is often called Lord in Scripture, especially in the writing of Paul. The word LORD, in the English Bible, when printed in small capitals, stands always for JEHOVAH in the Hebrew. See JEHOVAH.

Drink
The drinks of the Hebrews were water, wine, “strong drink,” and vinegar. Their drinking vessels were the cup, goblet or “basin,” the “cruse” or pitcher, and the saucer.
To drink water by measure (Ezek. 4:11), and to buy water to drink (Lam. 5:4), denote great scarcity. To drink blood means to be satiated with slaughter.
The Jews carefully strained their drinks through a sieve, through fear of violating the law of Lev. 11:20, 23, 41, 42. (See Matt. 23:24. “Strain at” should be “strain out.”)

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.
καί, a conj., and; the most freq. by far of all the particles in the N. T. [On its uses see W. § 53, 3sqq.; B. 361 (310) sqq., and ef.

The Greek word ποτήριον (poterion) means a drinking cup or wine cup, derived from ποτήρ (potēr). It is used in the New Testament to refer to both the physical vessel and its contents, often in a metaphorical sense related to divine experiences, such as suffering or blessings. The word appears in various contexts, including the Eucharist and references to God's providence.

Cup
A wine-cup (Gen. 40:11, 21), various forms of which are found on Assyrian and Egyptian monuments. All Solomon’s drinking vessels were of gold (1 Kings 10: 21). The cups mentioned in the New Testament were made after Roman and Greek models, and were sometimes of gold (Rev. 17:4).
The art of divining by means of a cup was practiced in Egypt (Gen. 44:2-17), and in the East generally.
The “cup of salvation” (Ps. 116:13) is the cup of thanksgiving for the great salvation. The “cup of consolation” (Jer. 16:7) refers to the custom of friends sending viands and wine to console relatives in mourning (
The cups of the Jews, whether of metal or earthenware, were possibly borrowed, in point of shape and design, from Egypt and from the Phoenicians, who were celebrated in that branch of workmanship. Egyptian cups were of various shapes, either with handles or without them. In Solomon’s time all his drinking vessels were of gold, none of silver. (1 Kings 10:21) Babylon is compared to a golden cup. (Jeremiah 51:7) The great laver, or "sea," was made with a rim like the rim of a cup (cos), with flowers of lilies," (1 Kings 7:26) a form which the Persepolitan cups resemble. The cups of the New Testament were often no doubt formed on Greek and Roman models. They were sometimes of gold. (
This word is taken in Scripture both in a proper and in a figurative sense. In a proper sense, it signifies a common cup, of horn, or some precious metal, Ge 40:13 44:2 1Ki 7:26, such as is used for drinking out of at meals; or a cup of ceremony, used at solemn and religious meals-as at the Passover, when the father of the family pronounced certain blessings over the cup, and having tasted it, passed it round to the company and his whole family, who partook of it, 1Co 10:16. In a figurative sense, a cup is spoken of as filled with the portion given to one by divine providence, Ps 11:6 16:5; with the blessings of life and of grace,

The Greek word δαιμόνιον (i.e., *daimonion*) is a neuter noun derived from the adjective δαιμόνιος and refers primarily to a demon or evil spirit. It can also denote a divine power or inferior deity, as seen in various contexts from the Old Testament to the New Testament, including references in Acts 17:18 and 1 Corinthians 10:20. The lexicons note its use for both heathen deities and malevolent spirits, with no significant disagreement among them.

Syl a24 13 (B.C, 210-5) τᾶς εἰς τὸ δαιμόνιον εὐσεβείας, and similarly 27015 (c.

Paul’s solitary τὸ θεῖον in Ac 1759 is the only NT passage which recalls this impersonal conception.

The Greek word οὐ (transliterated as ou) is a primary negative particle meaning 'not' or 'no.' It is used to negate verbs or statements, often appearing in various forms depending on the following sound. In the New Testament, it frequently serves to deny facts and is distinct from another negative particle, μή (transliterated as mē), which is used for prohibitions or wishes.
οὐ, before a vowel with smooth breathing οὐκ, before one with rough breathing οὐχ (but improperly οὐχ ἰδού, Ac 2:7, WH, mg.; cf. WH, Intr., § 409; M, Pr., 44, 244),

absol. (accented), οὔ, no: Mt 13:29, Jo 1:21 21:5; οὒ οὔ, Mt 5:37, Ja 5:12.
οὐ before a consonant, οὐκ before a vowel with a smooth breathing, and ody before an aspirated vowel ; but sometimes in the best codd. οὐχ occurs even before a smooth breathing; accordingly LT WH mrg. have adopted οὐχ ἰδού, Acts ii. 7; LT οὐχ ᾿Ιουδαϊκῶς, Gal. ii. 14 (see WH.

δύναμαι, transliterated as dunamai, means 'to be able' or 'to have power.' It can refer to personal ability, permission, or opportunity. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, such as in Matthew 6:24 and Mark 2:7. The lexicons indicate that it can be used with an infinitive or an accusative, but there is some variation in the forms and usages noted in different sources.

a'-b'-l: The Greek dunamai, "to have power," may refer either to inherent strength, or to the absence of in external obstacles, or to what may be allowable or permitted. The Greek ischuo, as in Lu 13:24; Joh 21:6, refers always to the first of the above meanings. The use of the word as an adjective the King James Version of 2Co 3:6, is misleading, and has been properly changed in the Revised Version (British and American) into "sufficient as ministers," i.e. "hath fitted us to be ministers."

τράπεζα refers to a table, particularly a dining table, and can also imply food or a meal. It is used in various contexts in the New Testament, such as for the table of shewbread (Hebrews 9:2) and for money-changers' tables (Matthew 21:12). The word is likely derived from terms meaning 'four-footed' and encompasses both physical tables and metaphorical uses related to meals and banking.

"Table" is derived from the Latin tabula, meaning primarily "a board," but with a great variety of other significances, of which "writing-tablet" is the most important for the Biblical use of "table." So in English "table" meant at first "any surface" and, in particular, "a surface for writing," and further specialization was needed before "table" became the name of the familiar article of furniture ("object with a horizontal surface"), a meaning not possessed by tabula in Latin. After this specialization "table" in the sense of "a surface for writing" was replaced in later English by the diminutive form "tablet." But "surface for writing" was still a common meaning of "table," and in this sense it represents luach (Ex 24:12, etc.), a word of uncertain origin, plax, "something flat" (

κύριος is a Greek word meaning 'lord' or 'master,' derived from the concept of authority. It is used in various contexts, referring to God, Jesus, and earthly masters. In the New Testament, it often denotes divine authority, as seen in verses like Matthew 12:8. The term can also express respect when addressing others, such as teachers or magistrates.
A MAN, according to the later Greek grammarians, was δεσπότης in respect of his slaves (Plato, Legg. vi. 756 e), therefore οἰκοδεσπότης, but κύριος in regard of his wife and children ; who in speaking either to him or of him, would give him this title of honour; “as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord” (κύριον αὐτὸν καλοῦσα, I Pet. ili. 6: ef. Plutarch, De Virt. Mul. 5. vv. Μίκκα καὶ Meyoro). There is a certain truth in this distinction. Undoubtedly there lies in κύριος the sense of an authority owning limitations—moral limitations it may be; it is implied too that the wielder of this authority will not exclude, in wielding it, a consideration of their good over whom it is exercised; while the δεσπότης exercises a more unrestricted power and absolute domination, confessing no such limitations or restraints. He who addresses another as δέσποτα, puts an emphasis of submission into his…

Lord
There are various Hebrew and Greek words so rendered.
(1.) Heb. Jehovah, has been rendered in the English Bible LORD, printed in small capitals. This is the proper name of the God of the Hebrews. The form “Jehovah” is retained only in Ex. 6:3; Ps. 83:18; Isa. 12:2; 26:4, both in the Authorized and the Revised Version.
(2.) Heb. ‘adon, means one possessed of absolute control. It denotes a master, as of slaves (Gen. 24:14, 27), or a ruler of his subjects (45:8), or a husband, as lord of his wife (18:12).
The old plural form of this Hebrew word is ’adonai. From a superstitious reverence for the name “Jehovah,” the Jews, in reading their Scriptures, whenever that name…
[GOD]
This name belongs to God by preeminence; and in this sense ought never to be given to any creature. Jesus Christ, as the Messiah, the Son of God, and equal with the Father, is often called Lord in Scripture, especially in the writing of Paul. The word LORD, in the English Bible, when printed in small capitals, stands always for JEHOVAH in the Hebrew. See JEHOVAH.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

τράπεζα refers to a table, particularly a dining table, and can also imply food or a meal. It is used in various contexts in the New Testament, such as for the table of shewbread (Hebrews 9:2) and for money-changers' tables (Matthew 21:12). The word is likely derived from terms meaning 'four-footed' and encompasses both physical tables and metaphorical uses related to meals and banking.

"Table" is derived from the Latin tabula, meaning primarily "a board," but with a great variety of other significances, of which "writing-tablet" is the most important for the Biblical use of "table." So in English "table" meant at first "any surface" and, in particular, "a surface for writing," and further specialization was needed before "table" became the name of the familiar article of furniture ("object with a horizontal surface"), a meaning not possessed by tabula in Latin. After this specialization "table" in the sense of "a surface for writing" was replaced in later English by the diminutive form "tablet." But "surface for writing" was still a common meaning of "table," and in this sense it represents luach (Ex 24:12, etc.), a word of uncertain origin, plax, "something flat" (

The Greek word δαιμόνιον (i.e., *daimonion*) is a neuter noun derived from the adjective δαιμόνιος and refers primarily to a demon or evil spirit. It can also denote a divine power or inferior deity, as seen in various contexts from the Old Testament to the New Testament, including references in Acts 17:18 and 1 Corinthians 10:20. The lexicons note its use for both heathen deities and malevolent spirits, with no significant disagreement among them.
δαιμόνιον, -ου, τό
(neut. of δαιμόνιος, -α, -ον, divine),
[in LXX (so also in π; v. MM, Exp., x) for שֵׁד, אֱלִיל, (freq. in Tob) ;]
as in cl.;
the Divine power, Deity (Hdt., Plat., al.);
an inferior divinity, deity or demon (as in magical π, Deiss., BS, 281; MM, Exp., x): ξένα δ., Ac 17:18.

in NT, evil spirits, demons: θύουσιν δαιμονίοις, I Co 10:20; διδασκαλίαι δαιμονίων, I Ti 4:1; προσκυνεῖν τὰ δ., Re 9:20; ἄρχων τῶν δ., Mt 9:34; especially (syn. with πνεῦμα…
δαιμόνιον, -ov, τό, (neut. of adj. δαιμόνιος, -a, -ov, divine, fr. δαίμων ; equiv. to τὸ θεῖον) ; 1. the divine Power, deity, divinity; so sometimes in prof. auth. as Joseph. b. j. 1, 2,8; Ael. vy. h. 12, 57; in plur. καινὰ δαιμόνια, Xen. mem. 1, 1, 1 sq., and once in the N. T. ξένα δαιμόva, Acts xvii. 18. 2. a spirit, a being inferior to God, superior to men [πᾶν τὸ δαιμόνιον μεταξύ ἐστι θεοῦ τε καὶ δαιμονιώδης 1
δαιμόνιον. The old adj. may be seen in OG/S 38375 (i/p.c.) where Antiochus of Commagene dedicates temple slaves κατὰ δαιμόνιον βούλησιν. Syl a24 13 (B.C, 210-5) τᾶς εἰς τὸ δαιμόνιον εὐσεβείας, and similarly 27015 (c. B.c. 193) τῆς συναντωμένης ἡμεῖν εὐμενίας διὰ ταῦτα παρὰ τοῦ δαιμονίου (following τῆς πρὸς τοὺς θεοὺς εὐσεβείας, and succeeded by τὴν ἡμετέραν εἰς τὸ θεῖον προτιμίαν) are witnesses to the growing sense in later Hellas of the unity of the Divine. Paul’s solitary τὸ θεῖον in Ac 1759 is the only NT passage which recalls this impersonal conception. The ‘‘Septuagint Memorial” from Hadrumetum of iii/a.p., published by Deissmann 2.5, p271 ff., opens with an adjuration to the demonic spirit of the tomb on which the spell was laid—opk({w σε, δαιμόνιον πνεῦμα τὸ ἐνθάδε κείμενον, τῷ ὀνόματι τῷ ἁγίῳ Αὠωθ κτλ., where the editor refers to the belief of post-biblical Judaism that the…
