1 Coríntios 14:8

The trumpet is a sign of war. Therefore, when the soul perceives itself armed with so many and such important virtues, it necessarily goes forth to the war it has against principalities and powers and against the world rulers. — HOMILIES ON NUMBERS 27

1 Coríntios 14:13

If the one who speaks in tongues does not have the power to interpret them, others will not understand, but he will know what he was moved by the Spirit to say. When this is understood by others as well, there will be fruit from it. Here as elsewhere, we are taught to seek the common good of the church. — COMMENTARY ON 1 CORINTHIANS 4.61-62

1 Coríntios 14:14

If you have brought a word in praise of God, not new and fresh from the learning of the spirit, from the teaching of God's grace, your mouth indeed offers "a sacrifice of praise," but your mind is accused on account of the sterility of yesterday's flesh. — HOMILIES ON LEVITICUS 5

1 Coríntios 14:15

For our mind would not even be able to pray unless the Spirit prayed for it as if obeying it, so that we cannot even sing and hymn the Father in Christ with proper rhythm, melody, measure and harmony unless the Spirit who searches everything, even the depths of God, first praises and hymns him whose depths he has searched out and has understood as far as he is able. — ON PRAYER 4

1 Coríntios 14:21

Note that Paul refers to the prophetic writings also as the "law." In this passage he is quoting Isaiah [28:11] according to Aquila's translation, and not according to the Septuagint. — COMMENTARY ON 1 CORINTHIANS 4.65

1 Coríntios 14:34

If this was the case, what are we to make of the fact that Philip had four daughters who prophesied? If they could do it, why can we not let our own prophetesses speak? We may answer this question as follows. First, if our prophetesses have spoken, show us the signs of prophecy in them. Second, even if the daughters of Philip did prophesy, they did not do so inside the church. Likewise in the Old Testament, although Deborah was reputed to be a prophetess, there is no indication that she ever corporately addressed the people in the way that Isaiah or Jeremiah did. The same is true of Huldah.. — COMMENTARY ON 1 CORINTHIANS 4.74.6-16

1 Coríntios 14:40

Therefore he wants all these to be set in order by you, nothing disordered, nothing restless, nothing indecent.… Therefore, now our true high priest, Christ, also wants his hands to be filled "with finely composed incense.". — HOMILIES ON LEVITICUS 9.4-5
