1 Corinthians 11:17-22, 28, 33-34

1 Corinthians 11:17-22 TOJB2011

But in giving the divrei Torah that follows I give no commendation, because when you assemble as the shul of Moshiach, it is not for the better that you assemble, but for the worse. Ershtins (first of all), indeed when you come together as the kehillah I hear there exist machlokot (divisions) and schisms among you, and partly I believe it. For it is necessary also for kitot (sects) of minut (heresy), of kefirah (heresy, denial) to be among you that also the approved ones may become manifest among you. Therefore, your farbrengen gatherings in one kahal (community) are not for the purpose of having Moshiachʼs Tish. For each one rushes ahead with his own seudah (meal). One is hungerik (hungry), one has passed out in his schnapps. Hey, you people, do you not have houses in which to eat and to drink? Or do you despise the Kehillah (congregation) of G-d? And do you bring bushah (shame), even humiliation, on the ones having nothing? What should I say to you? Will I commend you? In this I do not commend you people!

1 Corinthians 11:28 TOJB2011

But let a ben Adam apply cheshbon hanefesh to himself and in that manner let him eat of the Pesach matzoh and let him drink of the Pesach Kiddush Cup.

1 Corinthians 11:33-34 TOJB2011

Therefore, Achim b'Moshiach of mine, when you have your farbrengen gatherings and you gather for Tish, wait for one another. If anyone is so hungerik (hungry) [that he cannot wait], in his home let him eat, lest for mishpat you have kehillah. And as far as the hemshech (remaining part) is concerned, whenever I come I will set b'seder (in order).
