Contextual Overview
12For just as the body is one and yet has many parts, and all the parts, though many, form [only] one body, so it is with Christ. 13For by one [Holy] Spirit we were all baptized into one body, [spiritually transformed—united together] whether Jews or Greeks (Gentiles), slaves or free, and we were all made to drink of one [Holy] Spirit [since the same Holy Spirit fills each life]. 14For the [human] body does not consist of one part, but of many [limbs and organs]. 15If the foot says, "Because I am not a hand, I am not a part of the body," is it not on the contrary still a part of the body? 16If the ear says, "Because I am not an eye, I am not a part of the body," is it not on the contrary still a part of the body? 17If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole [body] were an ear, where would the sense of smell be? 18But now [as things really are], God has placed and arranged the parts in the body, each one of them, just as He willed and saw fit [with the best balance of function]. 19If they all were a single organ, where would [the rest of] the body be? 20But now [as things really are] there are many parts [different limbs and organs], but a single body.21The eye cannot say to the hand, "I have no need of you," nor again the head to the feet, "I have no need of you."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
But now are they many members,.... Of different make and shape, in different parts and places, and of different use and service:
yet but one body; all are united together, and make up one complete body, and which without each of them would not be perfect: so there are many members in the body of Christ, the church; some are teachers, others are hearers; some give, and others receive; but all make up but one church, of which Christ is the head; nor can anyone of them be spared; was anyone wanting, even the meanest, there would be a deficiency, and the church would not be the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
