1 Corinthians 10:6

Verse 6 of 33. The 10th of 16 chapters in 1 Corinthians, in The Letters of Paul.

2and were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea;

3and all ate the same spiritual food;

4and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of a spiritual rock that followed them, and the rock was Christ.

5However with most of them, God was not well pleased, for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

6Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things as they also lusted.

7Don’t be idolaters, as some of them were. As it is written, “The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.”

8Let’s not commit sexual immorality, as some of them committed, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell.

9Let’s not test Christ, as some of them tested, and perished by the serpents.

10Don’t grumble, as some of them also grumbled, and perished by the destroyer.
