Scripture Query and Answer: 1 Corinthians 14:21-31

Q. 1 Cor. 15:21-31. Is verse 30 an injunction to the second prophet to wait till the first has held his peace, or to the one speaking to be silent, because of something revealed to him that sitteth by?
W. N. T.
A. The first was the notion of Grotins; but to me it is clear that the latter is the true thought. The point appears to be the paramount importance of a revelation. (Compare 5: 6, 26) Ordinary teaching must yield to it. It is not supposed that the first prophet was speaking by revelation.
