Commentary

diversities of gifts--that is, varieties of spiritual endowments peculiar to the several members of the Church: compare "dividing to every man severally" (Co1 12:11). same Spirit--The Holy Trinity appears here: the Holy Spirit in this verse; Christ in Co1 12:5; and the Father in Co1 12:6. The terms "gifts," "administrations," and "operations," respectively correspond to the Divine Three. The Spirit is treated of in Co1 12:7, &c.; the Lord, in Co1 12:12, &c.; God, in Co1 12:28. (Compare Eph 4:4-6).
