15. I speak to you as sensible people; judge for yourselves what I say.
16. The cup we use in the Lord's Supper and for which we give thanks to God: when we drink from it, we are sharing in the blood of Christ. And the bread we break: when we eat it, we are sharing in the body of Christ.
17. Because there is the one loaf of bread, all of us, though many, are one body, for we all share the same loaf.
18. Consider the people of Israel; those who eat what is offered in sacrifice share in the altar's service to God.
19. Do I imply, then, that an idol or the food offered to it really amounts to anything?
