1 Coríntios 11:1
It is normal that we should imitate those whom God has set over us as teachers. For if they imitate God, why should we not imitate them? For just as God the Father sent Christ as the teacher and author of life, so Christ sent the apostles to be our teachers, so that we should imitate them, for we are unable to imitate him directly. — COMMENTARY ON PAUL'S EPISTLES
1 Coríntios 11:2
Having attacked their morals and behavior, Paul now goes on to correct their traditions. — COMMENTARY ON PAUL'S EPISTLES
1 Coríntios 11:3
God is the head of Christ because he begat him; Christ is the head of the man because he created him, and the man is the head of the woman because she was taken from his side. Thus one expression has different meanings, according to the difference of person and substantive relationship. — COMMENTARY ON PAUL'S EPISTLES
1 Coríntios 11:7
Although man and woman are of the same substance, the man has relational priority because he is the head of the woman. He is greater than she is by cause and order, but not by substance. Woman is the glory of man, but there is an enormous distance between that and being the glory of God. — COMMENTARY ON PAUL'S EPISTLES

1 Coríntios 11:22
The false apostles had sown divisions among them so that they were possessive of their offerings. Although they were all blessed with one and the same prayer, those who had not offered or who had nothing to offer were covered with shame and did not take part. Furthermore, it all happened so quickly that those who came later found nothing left to eat. — COMMENTARY ON PAUL'S EPISTLES
1 Coríntios 11:26
Paul shows that the Lord's Supper is not a meal in the normal sense but spiritual medicine, which purifies the recipient if he partakes of it reverently. It is the memorial of our redemption, so that mindful of our Redeemer we might follow him more closely. — COMMENTARY ON PAUL'S EPISTLES

Paul teaches that one should come to Communion with a reverent mind and with fear, so that the mind will understand that it must revere the one whose body it is coming to consume. — COMMENTARY ON PAUL'S EPISTLES
