1 Corinthians 10:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 (A)And did all drink the same spiritual drink (for they drank of the spiritual Rock that [a]followed them: and the Rock was [b]Christ.)
5 But with many of them God was not pleased: for they were (B)overthrown in the wilderness.
6 [c]Now these things are our [d]examples, to the intent that we should not lust after evil things (C)as they also lusted.

- 1 Corinthians 10:4 Of the river and running Rock, which followed the people.
- 1 Corinthians 10:4 Did sacramentally signify Christ, so that together with the sign, there was the thing signified, and the truth itself: for God doth not offer a bare sign, but the thing signifieth by the sign, together with it which is to be received with faith.
- 1 Corinthians 10:6 An amplifying of the example against them which are carried away with their lusts beyond the bounds which God has measured out. For this is the beginning of all evil, as of idolatry (which hath gluttony a companion unto it) fornication, rebelling against Christ, murmuring, and such like, which God punished most sharply in that old people, to the end that we which succeed them, and have a more full declaration of the will of God, might by that means take better heed.
- 1 Corinthians 10:6 Some read figures: which signified our sacraments: for circumcision was to the Jews a seal of righteousness, and to us a lively pattern of Baptism, and so in the other Sacraments.
