Context of 1 Corinthians 1:14
12Now I mean this, that each one of you is saying, “I am of Paul,” and “I of Apollos,” and “I of Cephas,” and “I of Christ.” 13Has Christ been divided? Paul was not crucified for you, was he? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul? I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius, 15so that no one would say you were baptized in my name. 16Now I did baptize also the household of Stephanas; beyond that, I do not know whether I baptized any other.

Commentaries on 1 Corinthians 1:14
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 14I thank God that I baptized none of you - None of those who now live in Corinth, except Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, Acts 18:8. And Gaius, the same person probably with whom Paul lodged, Romans 16:23; (note). Dr. Lightfoot observes: "If this be Gaius, or Caius, to whom the third epistle of John was written, which is very probable when the first verse of that epistle ( 3 John 1:1;) is compared with Romans 16:23, then it will appear probable that…Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 14I thank God - Why Paul did not himself baptize, see in 1 Corinthians 1:17. To him it was now a subject of grateful reflection that he had not done it. He had not given any occasion for the suspicion that he had intended to set himself up as a leader of a sect or party. But Crispus - Crispus had been the chief ruler of the synagogue at Corinth; Acts 18:8. And Gaius - Gaius resided at Corinth, and at his house Paul resided when he wrote the Epistle to the…Read the comment
- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 10-16Verses 10-16 In the great things of religion be of one mind; and where there is not unity of sentiment, still let there be union of affection. Agreement in the greater things should extinguish divisions about the lesser. There will be perfect union in heaven, and the nearer we approach it on earth, the nearer we come to perfection. Paul and Apollos both were faithful ministers of Jesus Christ, and helpers of their faith and joy; but those disposed to be…Read the comment
- Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 14Crispus and Gaius were two of Paul's first converts in Corinth. Crispus was once a leader of the synagogue in Corinth (see Acts 18:8). Gaius later let Paul use his home (see Romans 16:23). This might mean he was Titius Justus, an earlier convert to Judaism who lived next to the synagogue (see Acts 18:7). His full Roman name would then be Gaius Titius Justus.Read the comment
- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 1414. I thank God's providence now, who so ordered it that I baptized none of you but Crispus (the former ruler of the synagogue, Ac 18:8) and Gaius (written by the Romans Caius, the host of Paul at Corinth, and of the church, Ro 16:23; a person therefore in good circumstances). Baptizing was the office of the deacons (Ac 10:48) rather than of the apostles, whose office was that of establishing and superintending generally the churches. The deacons had a…Read the comment
