(16) The temple of God.--From the thought of grand edifices in general the Apostle goes on to the particular case of a building which is not only splendid but "holy"--the temple of God--thus reminding the reader that the rich and valuable metals and stones spoken of previously are to represent spiritual attainments.

Verse 16. - Know ye not. The phrase is used by St. Paul in this Epistle to emphasize important truths, as in 1 Corinthians 5:6; 1 Corinthians 6:2,.9, 15; 9:13, 24. Out of this Epistle it only occurs in Romans 6:16; Romans 11:2. That ye are the temple of God. "Ye," both collectively (Ephesians 2:21) and individually; "God's shrine;" not built for men's glory.

The temple; rather, the shrine (uses) wherein God dwells (naiei), and which is the holiest part of the temple (hieron). Parallel Commentaries ...
