I Corinthians 7

²⁶ I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, I say, that it is good for a man so to be.¹

In verse 25, the word virgins is used in the plural; however, the masculine gender “man” is used in the Greek in this verse. It is good for a man to be a virgin and not married.

So, as we will see in the following verses, he is discussing the subject of virginity for specifically both, female and male.

Next verse, previous verse other verses
