SEV Biblia, Chapter 1:15

para que ninguno diga que habéis sido bautizados en mi nombre.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Corinthians 1:15

Verse 15. Lest any should say, &c.] He was careful not to
baptize, lest it should be supposed that he wished to make a party for himself; because superficial observers might imagine that he baptized them into his own name-to be his followers, though he baptized them into the name of Christ only.

Instead of ebaptisa, I have baptized, the Codex Alexandrinus, the Codex Ephraim, and several others, with the Coptic, Sahidic, later Syriac in the margin, Armenian, Vulgate, some copies of the Itala, and several of the fathers, read ebaptisqhte, ye were baptized. And if we read ina, so that, instead of lest, the sentence will stand thus: So that no one can say that ye were baptized into my name. This appears to be the true reading, and for it Bp. Pearce offers several strong arguments.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 15. Lest any should say that I had baptized in my own name .] The Alexandrian copy, and some others, and the Vulgate Latin version, read, “lest anyone should say that ye were baptized in my name”; and the Ethiopic version renders it, “that ye might not say we have been baptized in his name”. This gives the true reason why the apostle was so thankful he had baptized no more of the members of this church, lest either some should reproach him, as having done it in his own name, and as seeking his own honour and interest; or lest others should affect, from their being baptized by him, to be called by his name, as if he was the author and patron of a new sect.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 10-16 - In the great things of
religion be of one mind; and where there is no unity of sentiment, still let there be union of affection. Agreement in the greater things should extinguish divisions about the lesser. Ther will be perfect union in heaven, and the nearer we approach it of earth, the nearer we come to perfection. Paul and Apollos both wer faithful ministers of Jesus Christ, and helpers of their faith and joy but those disposed to be contentious, broke into parties. So liable ar the best things to be corrupted, and the gospel and its institution made engines of discord and contention. Satan has always endeavoured to stir up strife among Christians, as one of his chief devices agains the gospel. The apostle left it to other ministers to baptize, while he preached the gospel, as a more useful work.

Vincent's NT Word Studies

15. l had
baptized (ebaptisa). The correct reading is ejbaptisqhte ye were baptized. So Rev. Paul's commission contains no mention of baptism. Compare Acts ix. 15, with Matt. xxviii. 15. From his peculiar position as the inaugurator of a second epoch of Christianity, many would be tempted to regard him as the real founder of the Church, and to boast of having been baptized into his name. "No outward initiation of converts entered into his ministry" (Edwards).

Robertson's NT Word Studies

1:15 {Lest any man should say} (hina me tis eipei). Certainly sub-final hina again or contemplated result as in #7:29; Joh 9:2. Ellicott thinks that already some in
Corinth were laying emphasis on the person of the baptizer whether Peter or some one else. It is to be recalled that Jesus himself baptized no one (#Joh 4:2) to avoid this very kind of controversy. And yet there are those today who claim Paul as a sacramentalist, an impossible claim in the light of his words here.
