And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
All Commentaries on 1 Corinthians 12:16 Go To 1 Corinthians 12
John Chrysostom
AD 407
Note that Paul couples the foot with the hand, which is mounted a little above it, and the ear with the eye likewise. This is because we are prone to envy not those who are far above us but those who are only a little bit above.
