ABUSERS OF THEMSELVES WITH MANKIND

 

1 Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

 

Adam Clarke:

Abusers of themselves with mankind - ἀρσενοκοῖτοι  arsenokoitoi. Paederastae or Sodomites. Those who indulged in a vice that was common among all the pagan; see the notes at Rom_1:27.

Romans 1:27 
Receiving in themselves that recompense, etc. - Both the women and men, by their unnatural prostitutions, enervated their bodies, so that barrenness prevailed, and those disorders which are necessarily attendant on prostitution and sodomitical practices.

 

1 Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God?
