Contextual Overview

26 Howe is it then brethren? When ye come together, euery one of you hath a psalme, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a reuelation, hath interpretation. Let all thynges be done vnto edifiyng. 27 Yf any man speake with tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course, and let one interprete. 28 But yf there be no interpreter, let him kepe scilence in the Churche, and let him speake to hym selfe, and to God. 29 Let the prophetes speake two or three, and let the other iudge. 30 If any reuelation be made to another that sitteth by, let ye first holde his peace. 31 For ye may all prophesie one by one, that all may learne, and all may haue comfort. 32 And the spirites of the prophetes, are subiect to the prophetes. 33 For God is not [the aucthour] of confusion, but of peace, as in all Churches of the saintes.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For ye may all prophesy one by one,.... Not every member of the church, but everyone that had the gift of prophecy; so that they were not confined to two or three prophets at a meeting, but as many as would, or as had anything to deliver, and as time would allow; only care must be taken that confusion be avoided, and order preserved by exercising in turns one after another. This was agreeably to the custom of the Jewish synagogue, in which more might read and speak, though but one at a time; for

"it is forbidden to read in the book of the law, except one only, that all may hearken, and be silent, that so they may hear the words from his mouth, as if they had heard them that very moment from Mount Sinai.''

So here,

that all may learn; more of the doctrine of Christ, and of the mind and will of God, and attain to a greater knowledge in the mysteries of the Gospel, and in the duties of religion, even prophets and teachers as well as private members and common hearers; for there are none who know ever so much, but are capable of being further taught and instructed, and that sometimes by such whose gifts are interior to them:

and all may be comforted; or exhorted, or receive exhortation. The word used signifies both; and prophecy is useful both for exhortation and comfort, and that both to preachers and people.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

For ye may all prophecy ... - There is time enough for all; there is no need of speaking in confusion and disorder. Every person may have an opportunity of expressing his sentiments at the proper time.

That all may learn - In such a manner that there may be edification. This might be done if they would speak one at a time in their proper order.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 31. For ye may all prophesy one by one — The gifts which God grants are given for the purpose of edification; but there can be no edification where there is confusion; therefore let them speak one by one.
