Context

The close of Paul's long discussion (chapters 8–10) of whether believers in Corinth could eat meat that had been offered to idols. He has just told them to eat what is sold in the market or served at an unbeliever's table without raising questions of conscience, but to decline if someone points out it was sacrificed, for that person's sake (10:25–29). The principle: do everything for God's glory and for the good of others.
