Definitions for 1-corinthians 11:33
Clarke's 1-corinthians 11:33 Bible Commentary
When ye come together to eat - The Lord's Supper, tarry one for another - do not eat and drink in parties as ye have done heretofore; and do not connect it with any other meal.
Barnes's 1-corinthians 11:33 Bible Commentary
When ye come together to eat - Professedly to eat the Lord's Supper.
Tarry one for another - Do not be guilty of disorder, intemperance, and gluttony; see the note at 1 Corinthians 11:21. Doddridge understands this of the feast that he supposes to have preceded the Lord's Supper. But the more obvious interpretation is, to refer it to the Lord's Supper itself; and to enjoin perfect order, respect, and sobriety. The idea is, that the table was common for the rich and the poor; and that the rich should claim no priority or precedence over the poor.
Wesley's 1-corinthians 11:33 Bible Commentary
11:33 The rest - The other circumstances relating to the Lord's supper.
