And you are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that has done this deed might be taken away from among you.

Paul humbles their pride, but in such a way that instead of making them angry he makes them willing to cooperate with him. Commentary on Paul’s Epistles.
And ye are puffed up. You meanwhile are so occupied with your contentious pride that you neglect to correct this incestuous person by removing him from your society. So Chrysostom, Theophylact, and Anselm. Learn from this how careful not only prelates but all the faithful should be to remove from the Church scandals and their authors.
