The Unity of the Body in Suffering
1 Corinthians 12:25-26
That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.…


As when by chance a thorn is planted in the heel, all the body manifests a fellow-feeling; back, hands, stomach, and thighs are drawn together, hands like attendants or esquires approach the wounded part and proceed to extract the painful fixture; head stoops, eyes look sad, the brow is delved with parallels of solicitude.

( Chrysostom.)
