1 Corinthians 11
1 Corinthians 11 is the eleventh chapter of the First Epistle to the Corinthians in the New Testament of the Christian Bible. It was authored by Paul the Apostle and Sosthenes in Ephesus. In this chapter, Paul writes on the conduct of Christians while worshiping together and enjoins the ordinances of headcovering and the Eucharist. Text The original text was written in Koine Greek. This chapter is divided into 34 verses. Textual witnesses Some early manuscripts containing the text of this chapter are: *Codex Vaticanus (AD 325–350) *Codex Sinaiticus (330–360) *Codex Alexandrinus (400–440) *Codex Ephraemi Rescriptus (~450; complete). *Codex Freerianus (~450; extant verses 9–10, 18–19, 26–27) * Codex Claromontanus (~550) *Codex Coislinianus (~550; extant verses 9–16) Imitator of Christ (11:1) Theologian John Gill suggests that these words "more properly close the preceding chapter, than begin a new one", and many commentators agree. Paul concludes his argumen ...

Erasmus Alberus
Erasmus Alberus (c. 15005 May 1553) was a German Humanism, humanist, Lutheran reform movement, reformer, and poet. Life He was born in the village of Bruchenbrücken (now part of Friedberg, Hesse) about the year 1500. Although his father Tilemann Alber was a schoolmaster, his early education was neglected. Ultimately in 1518, he found his way to the University of Wittenberg, where he studied theology. He had the good fortune to attract the attention of Martin Luther and Philipp Melanchthon, and subsequently became one of Luther's most active helpers in the Protestant Reformation. Not only did he fight for the Protestant cause as a preacher and theologian, but he was almost the only member of Luther's party who was able to confront the Roman Catholics with the weapon of literary satire. In 1542 he published a prose satire to which Luther wrote the preface, ''Der Barfusser Monche Eulenspiegel und Alkoran,'' a parodic adaptation of the ''Liber conformitatum'' of the Franciscan Barto ...
