1 Corinthians 13:12

German Interlinear 1979 (Interlinearübersetzung)

Denn wir sehen jetzt durch einen Spiegel in einem Rätsel; dann aber Angesicht zu Angesicht; jetzt erkenne ich teilweise, dann aber werde ich erkennen, wie auch ich erkannt worden bin.

Was bedeutet das?

This verse from the Apostle Paul says that now we only see things unclearly, like in a mirror, but later we will see clearly and understand fully as we do now when someone knows us well. The key message is about the difference between our current limited understanding of God's love and grace and the perfect understanding we will have in heaven.

Für Kinder erklärt

Imagine you're looking at your favorite cartoon through a foggy window; everything looks blurry and hard to see. That's how we see things now with our eyes and minds. But when we get to heaven, it’s like suddenly the window is clear, and you can see all the details of the cartoon just like if you were watching it on a big TV screen!

Historischer Hintergrund

This verse was written by Paul in his first letter to the Corinthians around AD 53-54. He wrote this to encourage the Corinthian church, which had many issues and misunderstandings about love and spiritual gifts.
