1 CORINTHIANS—NOTE ON 1 Corinthians 10:17 one bread... one body. After Jesus gave thanks for and broke the bread, he said, “This is my body which is for you” (1 Corinthians 11:24). The church is also Christ’s body (see also 1 Corinthians 12:12, 1 Corinthians 12:27; Ephesians 1:22; Ephesians 5:23, Ephesians 5:29). The Lord’s Supper, therefore, is an occasion when Christians declare unity with each other because of their common unity with Christ.
