Context — Food and Spirituality in Corinthgenerated
1 Corinthians 8:8 addresses the relationship between food and our standing before God. Paul clarifies that eating or abstaining from food does not enhance or diminish our spiritual condition. This is part of a broader discourse on how knowledge and freedom in Christ should be exercised with love and consideration for others, especially those with weaker consciences, as seen in the surrounding verses.

The Key Word — βρῶμα, brōmagenerated
The word βρῶμα is a noun meaning 'food' and can refer to both physical and spiritual nourishment. It is derived from the verb βιβρώσκω, meaning 'to eat'. This term appears in various contexts, including discussions on dietary laws and spiritual sustenance, as seen in passages like Matthew 14:15 and John 4:34.
In this verse, Paul emphasizes that food does not bring us closer to God. The use of βρῶμα here underscores the idea that physical consumption does not influence our spiritual status, which is a central theme in his letter to the Corinthians.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
In comparing translations, the Berean Standard Bible states, 'But food does not bring us closer to God,' which is echoed in the American Standard Version and Young's Literal Translation. However, the King James Version uses 'meat commendeth us not to God,' reflecting a more traditional phrasing.
The translations agree on the overall meaning, but they differ in wording, particularly in how they express the concept of eating and its effect on our relationship with God.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main clause is introduced by the conjunction δὲ, leading into the assertion about food. The structure includes a series of clauses that express the conditions of eating and the resulting spiritual implications.
The finite verb παραστήσει ('will commend') governs the sentence, with the subject βρῶμα ('food') and the object ἡμᾶς ('us') clearly defined. The negative particles οὐ and οὔτε are used to emphasize the lack of impact that food has on our relationship with God.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
βρῶμα appears in the Septuagint, where it translates the Hebrew word אֹ֫כֶל (food). This connection highlights the continuity of the concept of food across both the Old and New Testaments, emphasizing its role in discussions of sustenance and spiritual significance.
The use of βρῶμα in the LXX is consistent with its New Testament usage, often relating to physical nourishment and its implications for spiritual life.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
1 Corinthians 8:8 explains that food does not affect our relationship with God. Paul teaches that whether we eat or not does not make us better or worse in God's eyes. This is part of a larger conversation about how we should treat each other with love and understanding in matters of faith.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
Paul is indicating that our spiritual status is not determined by what we eat; it is our faith and actions that matter more.
Paul emphasizes that we should be mindful of others' consciences and beliefs, especially those who may be weaker in faith.
While Paul teaches freedom in Christ, he also warns against causing others to stumble by exercising that freedom without love.
This teaching encourages us to consider how our food choices affect our relationships with others and our witness as Christians.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- In what ways do I let food or dietary choices affect my spiritual life?
- How can I ensure that my freedom in Christ does not become a stumbling block for others?
- What are some practical ways I can support those with weaker consciences regarding food?
- How does understanding this passage change my view on spiritual nourishment?
The early church on this verse — how the Fathers read it
Early church Fathers referenced this verse to discuss the nature of food and its spiritual implications. Their writings offer insights into how this teaching was understood in the early Christian community.
The natural use of food is then indifferent. "For neither if we eat are we the better "it is said, "nor if we eat not are we the worse.". For it is not in the food of the belly, that we have heard good to be situated.Early Church Fathers on 1 Corinthians 8 →

Colossians 2:22) is a matter of absolute insignificance in itself. They are of no real advantage to us, if we use them; to abstain for the sake of abstaining is a matter of equal indifference in God’s sight.

But food will not commend us to God. For neither, if we don’t eat are we the worse, nor if we eat are we the better.
But food does not bring us closer to God: We are no better if we do not eat, and no worse if we do.
Now food will not bring us close to God. We are no worse if we do not eat and no better if we do.
Tyndale line

But meate maketh not vs acceptable to God, for neither if we eate, haue we the more: neither if we eate not, haue we the lesse.
Strictly literal

From the Latin
But meat doth not commend us to God. For neither, if we eat, shall we have the more; nor, if we eat not, shall we have the less.
Simplified
But food doesn't gain us God's approval! If we don't eat this food, we're not bad, and if we do eat this food, we're not good.
But God's approval of us is not based on the food we take: if we do not take it we are no worse for it; and if we take it we are no better.

βρῶμα refers to food or that which is eaten, including meat and other victuals. It appears in various New Testament contexts, often in discussions about dietary laws and spiritual nourishment, such as in Romans 14 and 1 Corinthians 8. The word is derived from βιβρώσκω, meaning to eat. Some lexicons note its figurative use for spiritual food.

LITERATURE
In a previous article (see BREAD) it has been shown that in the Bible "bread" usually stands for food in general and how this came to be so. In a complementary article on MEALS the methods of preparing and serving food will be dealt with. This article is devoted specifically to the foodstuffs of the Orient, more especially to articles of food in use among the Hebrews in Bible times. These are divisible into two main classes.
Food
Originally the Creator granted the use of the vegetable world for food to man (Gen. 1:29), with the exception mentioned (2:17). The use of animal food was probably not unknown to the antediluvians. There is, however, a distinct law on the subject given to Noah after the Deluge (Gen. 9:2-5). Various articles of food used in the patriarchal age are mentioned in Gen. 18:6-8; 25:34; 27:3, 4; 43:11. Regarding the food of the Israelites in Egypt, see Ex. 16:3; Num. 11:5. In the wilderness their ordinary food was miraculously supplied in the manna. They had also quails (Ex.…
The diet of eastern nations has been in all ages light and simple. Vegetable food was more used than animal. The Hebrews used a great variety of articles, (John 21:5) to give a relish to bread. Milk and its preparations hold a conspicuous place in eastern diet, as affording substantial nourishment; generally int he form of the modern leben , i.e. sour milk. Authorized Version "butter;" (Genesis 18:8; Judges 5:25; 2 Samuel 17:29) Fruit was another source of subsistence: figs stood first in point of importance; they were generally dried and pressed into cakes. Grapes were generally eaten in a dried state as raisins. Of vegetables we have most frequent notice of lentils…
In ancient the food of a people was more entirely the product of their own country than in our day. Palestine was favored with an abundance of animal food, grain, and vegetables. But throughout the East, vegetable food is more used than animal. Bread was the principal food. Grain of various kinds, beans, lentils, onions, grapes, together with olive oil, honey, and the milk of goats and cows were the ordinary fare. The wandering Arabs live much upon a coarse black bread. A very common dish in Syria is rice, with shreds of meat, vegetables, olive oil, etc., intermixed. A similar dish, made with beans, lentils, and various kinds of pulse, was in frequent use at an earlier age, Ge 25:29-34 2Ki 4:38-1.

δέ (de) is a post-positive particle in Greek, primarily used as a conjunction to connect clauses. It can express contrast (but, on the other hand) or continuation (and, also), and is often used to transition between ideas or to add emphasis. In the New Testament, it appears frequently in various contexts, such as contrasting statements or resuming interrupted discourse, with notable examples in Matthew and 2 Corinthians.

It serves also to mark the resumption of an interrupted discourse, 2 Cor. 2:10; Gal. 2:6
δέ but: conjunctive Particle, with adversative force: it commonly answers to μέν, and may often be rendered by while, whereas, on the other hand, v. μέν:— but μέν is often omitted, δέ being used merely to pass on from one thing to another; ὣς Ἀχιλεὺς θάμβησεν, θάμβησαν δὲ καὶ ἄλλοι Il.; etc.; κινεῖ κραδίην κινεῖ δὲ χόλον Eur.

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),

παρίστημι is a verb meaning to stand beside or to present. It can refer to placing something before someone, providing assistance, or being present, as seen in various New Testament verses like Acts 9:41 and Romans 6:13. The word is built from the roots meaning 'beside' and 'to stand.' It has a range of uses, from offering support to presenting ideas or arguments.

(1) For paratithemi (Lu 23:46), translating the Hebrew paqadh (Ps 31:5), in the dying words of Jesus: "Into thy hands I commend my Spirit." the King James Version in Psalms has the more general word "commit." The use of the Greek word in the sense of "deposit what belongs to one into the hands of another" is not uncommon in the classics. So also the derivatives paratheke (2Ti 1:12) and parakatatheke (1Ti 6:20; 2Ti 1:14). See DEPOSIT. This sense of the English, while slightly archaic, corresponds to the first meaning of the Latin, whence it comes, "to commit for preservation," especially of the dying; to commend…

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences.

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.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

θεός (theos) means 'God' or 'a god' and is used in both singular and plural forms. It refers to the supreme deity in monotheistic contexts, as well as to lesser deities in polytheistic settings. The New Testament frequently employs this term, notably in verses like Matthew 27:46 and Acts 19:37. Some lexicons note its use as a title for rulers or magistrates, reflecting its broader application in ancient texts.

God
(A.S. and Dutch God; Dan. Gud; Ger. Gott), the name of the Divine Being. It is the rendering (1) of the Hebrew ’El, from a word meaning to be strong; (2) of ’Eloah_, plural _’Elohim. The singular form, Eloah, is used only in poetry. The plural form is more commonly used in all parts of the Bible, The Hebrew word Jehovah (q.v.), the only other word generally employed to denote the Supreme Being, is uniformly rendered in the Authorized Version by “LORD,” printed in small capitals. The existence of God is taken for granted in the Bible. There is nowhere any argument to prove it. He who disbelieves this truth is spoken of as one devoid of understanding (Ps. 14:1).
The arguments generally adduced by theologians in proof of the being of God are:
(1.) The a priori argument, which is the testimony afforded by reason.
(good). Throughout the Hebrew Scriptures two chief names are used for the one true divine Being--ELOHIM, commonly translated God in our version, and JEHOVAH, translated Lord . Elohim is the plural of Eloah (in Arabic Allah); it is often used in the short form EL (a word signifying strength , as in EL-SHADDAI, God Almighty, the name by which God was specially known to the patriarchs. (Genesis 17:1; 28:3; Exodus 6:3) The etymology is uncertain, but it is generally agreed that the primary idea is that of strength, power of effect , and that it properly describes God in that character in which he is exhibited to all men in his works, as the creator, sustainer and supreme governor of the world. The plural form of Elohim has given rise to much discussion. The fanciful idea that it…
This name, the derivation of which is uncertain, we give to that eternal, infinite, perfect, and incomprehensible Being, the Creator of all things, who preserves and governs all by his almighty power and wisdom, and is the only proper object of worship. The proper Hebrew name for God is JEHOVAH, which signifies He is. But the Jews, from a feeling of reverence, avoid pronouncing this name, substituting for it, wherever it occurs in the sacred test, the word ADONAI, Lord; except in the expression, ADONAI JEHOVAH, Lord Jehovah, for which they put, ADONAI ELOHIM, Lord God. This usage, which is not without an element of superstition, is very ancient, dating its origin some centuries before Christ; but there is no good ground for assuming its existence in the days of the inspired Old Testament writers. The proper word for God is ELOHIM, which is plural in its form, being thus used to signify…

The Greek word οὔτε (i.e., *oute*) is a negative particle meaning 'neither' or 'nor.' It is often used to connect negative clauses, as in 'neither... nor...' and can appear in various forms, such as οὐ... οὔτε.

The Greek word γάρ (gar) is a coordinating particle primarily used to introduce reasons or explanations, similar to 'for' in English. It can serve various functions, including causal, explicative, and conclusive, and is often placed after the first word in a clause. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts that clarify or justify preceding statements, aligning with its classical usage.
γάρ, a conjunction, which ace. to its composition, γέ and dpa (i. 4. ἄρ), is properly a particle of affirmation and conclusion, denoting truly therefore, verily as the case stands, “ the thing is first aflirmed by the particle yé, and then is referred to what precedes by the force of the particle dpa” (Klotz ad Devar. ii. 1, p. 232; οἵ. Kiihner ii. p. 724; [Jelf § 786; W. 445 (415) sq-]). Now since by a new affirmation not infrequently the reason and nature of something previously mentioned are set forth, it comes to pass that, by the use of this particle, either the reason and cause of a foregoing statement is added, whence arises the causal or argumentative force of the particle, for (Lat. nam, enim; Germ. denn) ; or some previous declaration is explained, whence γάρ takes on an ex plicative force: YP Sor, the fact is, namely (Lat. videlicet, Germ. ndmilich). Thus the force of the…

μή (mē) is a Greek negative particle used to express subjective negation, often in conditional or hypothetical contexts. It contrasts with οὐ (ou), which indicates absolute denial. μή can function as an adverb meaning 'not' or as a conjunction meaning 'lest.' It appears in various grammatical constructions, including prohibitions and deliberative questions, and is referenced in verses like Matthew 5:29 and John 3:18.
μή,
subjective negative particle,
used where the negation depends on a condition or hypothesis, expressed or understood, as distinct from οὐ, which denies absolutely. μή is used where one thinks a thing is not, as distinct from an absolute negation. As a general rule, οὐ negatives the indic., μή the other moods, incl, ptcp. [In LXX for אֵין, אַיִן, אַל.]
As a neg. adv., not;
with ref. to thought or opinion: Jo 3:18, Tit 1:11, II Pe 1:9.
μή, Sept. for Ox, |X, PN, ἃ particle of negation, which differs from οὐ (which is always an adverb) in that ov denies the thing itself (orto speak technically, denies simply, absolutely, categorically, directly, objectively). but μή denies the thought of the thing, or the thing according to the judgment, opinion, will, purpose, preference, of some one (hence, as we say technically, indirectly, hypothetically, subjectively). This distinction holds also of the compounds οὐδείς, μηδείς, οὐκέτι, μηκέτι, ete.

The Greek word ἐσθίω (i.e., *esthio*) means 'to eat' and is used in various contexts, both literal and figurative. It is built from the root associated with eating and can imply consuming food in a regular manner or in a more metaphorical sense, such as devouring or squandering. The New Testament uses this term frequently, with a notable emphasis on eating in communal or ritual contexts.

The Greek word οὔτε (i.e., *oute*) is a negative particle meaning 'neither' or 'nor.' It is often used to connect negative clauses, as in 'neither... nor...' and can appear in various forms, such as οὐ... οὔτε. The New Testament uses it in several verses, including Galatians 1:12 and Revelation 5:4.
οὔτε, (ov and τέ), an adjunctive negative conj., [fr. Hom. down], (differing fr. μήτε as οὐ does fr. μή [q. v. ad init.], and fr. οὐδέ as μήτε does fr. μηδέ; see pyre and οὐδέ), neither; and not. 1. Examples in which οὔτε stands singly : a. οὐ... οὔτε, Rev. xii. 8 Rec. (where GL T Tr WH οὐδέ); xx. 4 RG (where L T Tr WH οὐδέν ; οὐδεὶς ἄξιος εὑρέθη ἀνοῖξαι τὸ βιβλίον οὔτε βλέπειν αὐτό, Rev. ν. 4; cf.

ἐάν is a conditional particle formed from εἰ (if) and ἄν. It indicates uncertainty or a hypothetical situation, often followed by the subjunctive mood.

The Greek word ἐσθίω (i.e., *esthio*) means 'to eat' and is used in various contexts, both literal and figurative. It is built from the root associated with eating and can imply consuming food in a regular manner or in a more metaphorical sense, such as devouring or squandering. The New Testament uses this term frequently, with a notable emphasis on eating in communal or ritual contexts.

ad-van'-taj (cakhan): In Job 35:3 is interpreted in succeeding clause as "profit." In Ro 3:1 perissos, is likewise interpreted by a paraphrase in the next sentence. the Revised Version (British and American) prefers to render pleonekteo by "take advantage," where the King James Version has "defraud" (2Co 7:2), or "make gain of" (2Co 12:17; compare 2Co 2:11). In Jude 1:16 "advantage" (opheleia) means "profit."
