For in eating every one takes first his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.
All Commentaries on 1 Corinthians 11:21 Go To 1 Corinthians 11
John Chrysostom
AD 407
The Corinthians were disgracing themselves by turning the Lord’s Supper into a private meal and thus depriving it of its greatest prerogative. The Lord’s Supper ought to be common to all, because it is the Master’s, whose property does not belong to one servant or to another but ought to be shared by all together.
