1 Corinthians 7:40

---

← 1 Corinthians 7:39	1 Corinthians 7:40 (KJV)	1 Corinthians 8:1 →
The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.	But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the Spirit of God.	Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.
