1 Corinthians 3:7

1 Corinthians 3:7

Watering, Working, Warning

5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ^aministers through whom you believed, as the Lord gave to each one?

6 ^aI planted, ^bApollos watered, ^cbut God gave the increase.

7 So then ^aneither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.

8 Now he who plants and he who waters are one, ^aand each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor.

9 For ^awe are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, you are ^bGod’s building.

10 ^aAccording to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid ^bthe foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it.

So then neither—neither—but (wste oute—oute—all). Paul applies his logic relentlessly to the facts. He had asked

what (ti) is Apollos or Paul (verse I Corinthians 3:5). The answer is here.

Neither is anything (ti)

the one who plants nor the one who waters. God is the whole and we are not anything.
