What the Fathers say
Eastern Fathers
John Chrysostom
"Only as God hath distributed to each man, as the Lord hath called each, so let him walk. Was any one called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Was any called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised. Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing; but the keeping of the commandments of God. Let each man abide in that calling wherein he was called. Wast thou called, being a slave? Care not for it." These things contribute nothing unto faith, saith he. …
Theophylact of Ohrid
He said this so that the Corinthians would more readily obey him, since he commands the same thing to others together with them as well.
