The Key Word — συμπάσχει, sumpaschōgenerated
The verb συμπάσχω (sumpaschō) means 'to suffer together' or 'to sympathize with.' It combines the prefix συν-, meaning 'together,' with πάσχω, which means 'to suffer.' This word conveys the idea of sharing in someone else's pain, as seen in contexts like Romans 8:17 and here in 1 Corinthians 12:26.
In this verse, Paul uses this term to emphasize that the experiences of individual members impact the entire body of Christ. When one member is in pain, the whole body feels that pain, and when one is honored, the joy is shared by all.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This analysis references the Berean Standard Bible (BSB) as the primary text. The BSB uses suffers and is honored, which aligns closely with other translations like the KJV and ASV.
However, some versions differ slightly. The KJV and ASV use member in the singular form, while the BSB and others use members in the plural. Additionally, the word δοξάζεται is rendered as is honored in the BSB, while the DBY and YLT choose glorified.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse contains two main clauses linked by the conjunction καὶ (kai), meaning 'and.' The first clause states the condition of suffering, while the second addresses the condition of honor.
The subject of both clauses is μέλος (melos), meaning 'member,' with the verbs πάσχει (paschō) and δοξάζεται (doxazō) describing the actions of suffering and being honored, respectively.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
μέλος (melos) is found in the Septuagint, where it refers to parts of the body. It is used to describe both physical limbs and metaphorically to denote members of a community, emphasizing unity.
The word δοξάζω (doxazō) also appears in the Septuagint, often in contexts related to honor and glorification, linking it to the concept of recognition within the community.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
1 Corinthians 12:26 teaches that if one part of the body suffers, every part suffers with it, and if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it. This illustrates the unity and interconnectedness of believers in the body of Christ.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
It means that when one believer experiences pain or hardship, all believers share in that suffering, highlighting the importance of empathy within the Christian community.
This verse emphasizes that all members of the church are interconnected, and the experiences of one member affect the whole body, reinforcing the idea of mutual support.
When a member is honored, it signifies recognition and celebration of their contributions or achievements, and the entire community rejoices in that honor.
We can apply this teaching by being attentive to the needs of others, offering support in times of suffering, and celebrating the successes of our fellow believers.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- In what ways can I support others in their suffering within my community?
- How can I celebrate the achievements of others and share in their joy?
- What does it mean for me to be a member of the body of Christ?
- How can I foster a sense of unity and empathy among my fellow believers?

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.
Et si quid patitur unum membrum, compatiuntur omnia membra : sive gloriatur unum membrum, congaudent omnia membra.
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.
ܕܐܡܬܝ ܕܚܕ ܗܕܡ ܢܗܘܐ ܟܐܒ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܚܫܝܢ ܘܐܢ ܡܫܬܒܚ ܚܕ ܗܕܡ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܗܕܡܐ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܡܫܬܒܚܝܢ

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.

πάσχω (paschō) means to suffer or be affected by something, often with a focus on negative experiences. It can also refer to positive experiences when qualified by an adjective. The New Testament frequently uses it in contexts of suffering, such as in Luke 22:15 and 1 Peter 2:19. The word is built from the root meaning to receive an impression, and it appears in various forms across Greek literature.

The Greek word μέλος (melos) means 'member' or 'limb' of the body, appearing in various New Testament contexts, such as 1 Corinthians and Romans. It can also metaphorically refer to members of the Christian community, emphasizing their unity in Christ. The word has roots in classical literature, where it can denote parts of the body or even musical elements, though the New Testament primarily uses it in the context of physical and spiritual membership.

The first Hebrew word is derived from a root meaning "to knead," "to mold in clay," "to create." It therefore denotes any feature or part of the body. "So the tongue also is a little member, and boasteth great things" (Jas 3:5). "The members" is equivalent with "the body" (which see; compare Ps 139:16 the King James Version). The members are not self-governing, but execute the orders of the mind, obeying either the lower nature in the commission of sin or iniquity, unrighteousness and uncleanness (Ro 6:13,19), or following the higher nature, the Divine impulses in the fulfilling of the law of Christ…

The Greek word συμπάσχω (lemma: sumpascho) is composed of the prefix συν- meaning 'together' and πάσχω meaning 'to suffer.' It conveys the idea of suffering together or sympathizing with another's pain, as seen in Romans 8:17 and 1 Corinthians 12:26. The lexicons consistently emphasize its use in contexts of shared suffering and empathy.

The Greek word πᾶς (i.e., *pas*) means 'all' or 'every' and appears in various forms, including masculine, feminine, and neuter. It is used in the New Testament to denote totality, as in 'all things' or 'every kind,' and can function as an adjective or pronoun. Notably, it can also imply 'the whole' when used with definite articles, as seen in verses like Matthew 28:18.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

The Greek word μέλος (melos) means 'member' or 'limb' of the body, appearing in various New Testament contexts, such as 1 Corinthians and Romans. It can also metaphorically refer to members of the Christian community, emphasizing their unity in Christ. The word has roots in classical literature, where it can denote parts of the body or even musical elements, though the New Testament primarily uses it in the context of physical and spiritual membership.

The Greek verb δοξάζω (doxazo) is derived from δόξα and encompasses meanings related to thinking, supposing, and holding opinions, as well as glorifying or extolling someone or something. It is used in the New Testament to denote actions of praising, magnifying, and rendering glory, particularly in reference to God and Christ. The lexicons generally agree on its applications, though some nuances in usage may vary.
δοξάζω
(< δόξα),
[in LXX chiefly for כּבד ni., pi., also for פּאר, etc. ;]
to think, suppose, hold an opinion (Æsch., Plat., al.).
To bestow δόξα (q.v.) on, to magnify, extol, praise (Thuc., iii, 45; Plut., al.): c. acc, Mt 5:16, Mk 2:12, Jo 8:54, Ro 15:6, I Pe 2:12, al.; id. seq. ἐπί Lk 2:20; ἐν, Ga 1:24, I Pe 4:16.
In LXX and NT (v.s. δόξα, 3), to clothe with splendour, glorify (Ex 34:29, 30, Ps 36 (37):20,
δοξάζω; [impf. ἐδόξαζον] ; fut. δοξάσω ; 1 aor. ἐδόξασα; Pass., [ pres. δοξάζομαι]; pf. δεδόξασμαι ; 1 aor. ἐδοξάσθην ; (δόξα); Vulg. honorifico, glorifico, clarifico ; Sept. chiefly for 723, several times for 983, (in Ex. xxxiv. 29 sq. 35 δοξάζεσθαι stands for 1 to shine) ; 1. to think, suppose, be of opinion, (Aeschyl., Soph., Xen., Plat., Thuc., et sqq.; nowhere in this sense in the sacred writings). 2. fr.

As illustrating the NT usage of this word, the following invocation from the magical papyrus P Lond 121° (jii/a.p.) (=I. p. 100) is noteworthy—kvpla “Iows . . . δόξασόν por (for pe), ὡς ἐδόξασα τὸ (ὄνομα) τοῦ υἱοῦ (pap. viots) σου “Ὥρου : cf. Reitzenstein Poimandres, p. 22 n°. See Anz Subsidia, p. 356.

The Greek word μέλος (melos) means 'member' or 'limb' of the body, appearing in various New Testament contexts, such as 1 Corinthians and Romans. It can also metaphorically refer to members of the Christian community, emphasizing their unity in Christ. The word has roots in classical literature, where it can denote parts of the body or even musical elements, though the New Testament primarily uses it in the context of physical and spiritual membership.

The first Hebrew word is derived from a root meaning "to knead," "to mold in clay," "to create." It therefore denotes any feature or part of the body. "So the tongue also is a little member, and boasteth great things" (Jas 3:5). "The members" is equivalent with "the body" (which see; compare Ps 139:16 the King James Version). The members are not self-governing, but execute the orders of the mind, obeying either the lower nature in the commission of sin or iniquity, unrighteousness and uncleanness (Ro 6:13,19), or following the higher nature, the Divine impulses in the fulfilling of the law of Christ…

συγχαίρω is built from the prefix συν- meaning 'with' and χαίρω meaning 'to rejoice.' It means to rejoice with someone or to congratulate them. The New Testament uses it in contexts like Luke 1:58 and Philippians 2:17. There is some variation in the emphasis on congratulating versus simply rejoicing with someone, as noted in the entries.

The Greek word πᾶς (i.e., *pas*) means 'all' or 'every' and appears in various forms, including masculine, feminine, and neuter. It is used in the New Testament to denote totality, as in 'all things' or 'every kind,' and can function as an adjective or pronoun. Notably, it can also imply 'the whole' when used with definite articles, as seen in verses like Matthew 28:18.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

The Greek word μέλος (melos) means 'member' or 'limb' of the body, appearing in various New Testament contexts, such as 1 Corinthians and Romans. It can also metaphorically refer to members of the Christian community, emphasizing their unity in Christ. The word has roots in classical literature, where it can denote parts of the body or even musical elements, though the New Testament primarily uses it in the context of physical and spiritual membership.
