Cross-Reference Analysis
09 Cross-Reference and Theme Analysis — 1 Corinthians (Full Book)
OT Quotations, Allusions, Typology, and Romans-Curriculum Parallels for the Filipino Language Package
Purpose: This document catalogs every identifiable Old Testament quotation and allusion in 1 Corinthians 1–16, every messianic reference and typological pattern, and every point of thematic/lexical overlap with the Romans curriculum already established in this Language Package. It supplies rendering-consistency rules so that shared quotations, typological terms, and doctrine vocabulary are translated identically wherever they recur across curricula. All citations use the normalizable format Book Chapter:Verse (e.g., 1 Corinthians 15:3, Genesis 2:24).

PART A: OT QUOTATION AND ALLUSION MATRIX (Chapter by Chapter)
Chapter 1 — Christian Unity versus Factionalism; The Cross as Wisdom and Power
| Passage | Theme | Related Character | OT/NT Connection | Translation Sensitivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Corinthians 1:19 | The Cross as Wisdom and Power | God (speaker) | Direct quotation: Isaiah 29:14 (“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise”) | Medium — must preserve “karunungan” (wisdom) consistently; the quotation grounds Paul’s polemic against worldly wisdom in prior OT revelation, not novel opinion. |
| 1 Corinthians 1:31 | Christian Unity versus Factionalism / Grace | God (speaker) | Direct quotation: Jeremiah 9:24 (cf. also 2 Corinthians 10:17, same quotation) | Medium — “boast in the Lord” (magmalaki sa Panginoon) must be rendered identically wherever this exact Jeremiah quotation recurs across curricula. |
Chapter 2 — The Cross as Wisdom and Power (continued)
| Passage | Theme | Related Character | OT/NT Connection | Translation Sensitivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Corinthians 2:9 | The Cross as Wisdom and Power | God (speaker) | Allusion: Isaiah 64:4 (cf. Isaiah 65:17) — “what no eye has seen” | High — occurs adjacent to μυστήριον (“hiwaga”); teaching must keep this tied to the previously-hidden-now-revealed gospel plan, not the Rosary-mystery devotional category flagged in 07_semantic_analysis.md. |
| 1 Corinthians 2:16 | The Cross as Wisdom and Power | God (speaker) | Direct quotation: Isaiah 40:13 (“who has known the mind of the Lord?”) | Low-Medium — “isip ng Panginoon/ni Kristo” (mind of the Lord/Christ); straightforward. |
Chapter 3 — Christian Unity versus Factionalism (continued)
| Passage | Theme | Related Character | OT/NT Connection | Translation Sensitivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Corinthians 3:19 | The Cross as Wisdom and Power | none (proverbial) | Direct quotation: Job 5:13 (“he catches the wise in their craftiness”) | Low. |
| 1 Corinthians 3:20 | The Cross as Wisdom and Power | none (proverbial) | Direct quotation: Psalm 94:11 (“the Lord knows the thoughts of the wise”) | Low. |
Chapter 4 — Apostleship and Church Discipline (foundations)
| Passage | Theme | Related Character | OT/NT Connection | Translation Sensitivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Corinthians 4:6 | Christian Unity versus Factionalism | none | General appeal to “what is written,” no single identifiable OT citation | Low — render as a general appeal to Scripture’s authority; do not force a specific OT source into the text. |
Chapter 5 — Church Discipline and Holiness
| Passage | Theme | Related Character | OT/NT Connection | Translation Sensitivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Corinthians 5:7 | Church Discipline and Holiness / The Cross as Wisdom and Power (Christ’s atoning death) | Christ (as Paschal Lamb); typological link to the Exodus generation | Typology: Exodus 12:1-13, 21-27 (the Passover lamb); fulfillment language, “Christ our Passover has been sacrificed” | High — “Paskuwa” must be kept distinct from “Pasko” (Christmas); this is Passover-lamb substitutionary typology, directly reinforcing the atonement theology of Romans 3:25. |
| 1 Corinthians 5:13 | Church Discipline and Holiness | none | Direct quotation: Deuteronomy 17:7 (“purge the evil person from among you”) | Medium — must be read as restorative church discipline, not vigilante punishment. |
Chapter 6 — Church Discipline and Holiness (continued); Marriage foundations
| Passage | Theme | Related Character | OT/NT Connection | Translation Sensitivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Corinthians 6:16 | Marriage and Singleness / Church Discipline | Adam, Eve (implicit) | Direct quotation: Genesis 2:24 (“the two shall become one flesh”) | Low — “isang laman” is an established idiom; foundational marriage-design text also relevant to any future Ephesians/Genesis curricula in this Language Package. |
Chapter 7 — Marriage and Singleness
| Passage | Theme | Related Character | OT/NT Connection | Translation Sensitivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Corinthians 7:2, 7:10-11 | Marriage and Singleness | Adam, Eve (implicit design) | Allusion (not direct quotation): Genesis 2:18-24, the marriage institution | Low — no new citation form required; reuses Genesis 2:24 rendering established in ch.6. |
Chapter 8 — Christian Liberty and Idol Meat
| Passage | Theme | Related Character | OT/NT Connection | Translation Sensitivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Corinthians 8:4, 8:6 | Christian Liberty and Idol Meat / Deity of Christ | none | Allusion: Deuteronomy 6:4, the Shema (“the LORD is one”) | High — monotheism affirmation underlying the “no idol has real existence” argument; must be kept doctrinally sharp given the diyus-diyosan collision risk noted in 07_semantic_analysis.md, and connects to Romans 3:29-30’s “one God” of Jew and Gentile. |
Chapter 9 — Christian Liberty (continued); Apostleship
| Passage | Theme | Related Character | OT/NT Connection | Translation Sensitivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Corinthians 9:9 | Christian Liberty and Idol Meat / Apostleship (ministerial support) | none | Direct quotation: Deuteronomy 25:4 (“do not muzzle an ox while it treads out the grain”) | Medium — agricultural metaphor; Filipino farming context aids intelligibility. |
| 1 Corinthians 9:13 | Apostleship | Levitical priests (implicit) | Allusion: Numbers 18:8-32; Deuteronomy 18:1-8 (priests/temple servants supported from offerings) | Low-Medium. |
Chapter 10 — Christian Liberty and Idol Meat (continued); The Lord’s Supper (introduced)
This chapter contains the letter’s densest concentration of OT allusion, functioning as an extended wilderness-generation typology.
| Passage | Theme | Related Character | OT/NT Connection | Translation Sensitivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Corinthians 10:1-2 | Christian Liberty and Idol Meat / The Lord’s Supper (typological introduction) | Moses; the wilderness generation of Israel | Allusion: Exodus 13:21-22 (the cloud); Exodus 14:21-29 (the Red Sea crossing) — described as a type of baptism | High — explicit typological framing (“baptized into Moses”); must not collapse OT Exodus “baptism” into a claim of sacramental equivalence with Christian baptism; it is a pattern/warning, not identical ritual efficacy. |
| 1 Corinthians 10:3-4 | The Lord’s Supper (typological introduction) / Messianic typology | Christ (identified as “the Rock”) | Typology: Exodus 16 (manna); Exodus 17:6, Numbers 20:11 (water from the Rock) — “and the Rock was Christ” | High — explicit messianic pre-existence claim; Christ himself is identified as the OT Rock-provider. Must preserve this direct identification, not soften it into mere symbolic resemblance. |
| 1 Corinthians 10:6 | Christian Liberty and Idol Meat | wilderness generation | Explicit typology marker (τύποι, “these things became examples/types for us”) referencing the preceding Exodus/Numbers narrative as a whole | Medium — render “mga halimbawa” or “mga tipo” and preserve the didactic warning function Paul assigns to OT narrative (cf. Romans 15:4). |
| 1 Corinthians 10:7 | Christian Liberty and Idol Meat | the golden-calf generation | Direct quotation: Exodus 32:6 (“the people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play”) | Medium-High — idolatrous feasting; directly relevant to the idol-meat argument. |
| 1 Corinthians 10:8 | Christian Liberty and Idol Meat / Church Discipline and Holiness | the Baal of Peor generation | Allusion: Numbers 25:1-9 (sexual immorality with Moabite women, 23,000 died) | High — reinforces “pakikiapid” (sexual immorality) with a severe historical consequence; must retain moral seriousness. |
| 1 Corinthians 10:9 | Christian Liberty and Idol Meat | the wilderness generation; typologically, Christ (“testing Christ”) | Allusion: Numbers 21:5-6 (grumbling, fiery serpents) | Medium-High — “testing Christ” retroactively identifies the OT “Lord” tested by Israel with Christ himself; a Deity-of-Christ-adjacent claim requiring careful, faithful rendering. |
| 1 Corinthians 10:10 | Christian Liberty and Idol Meat | the wilderness generation | Allusion: Numbers 14:2 (grumbling); Numbers 16:41-49 (the destroyer) | Medium. |
| 1 Corinthians 10:20-21 | Christian Liberty and Idol Meat | none | Allusion: Deuteronomy 32:17 (“they sacrificed to demons, not God”) | High — directly underlies the “mga demonyo” (demons) term flagged in 07_semantic_analysis.md/08_core_glossary.md; the “table of demons” language must retain full spiritual seriousness. |
| 1 Corinthians 10:22 | Christian Liberty and Idol Meat | none | Allusion: Deuteronomy 32:21 (“provoke the LORD to jealousy”) | Medium. |
| 1 Corinthians 10:26 | Christian Liberty and Idol Meat | none | Direct quotation: Psalm 24:1 (“the earth is the LORD’s, and everything in it”) | Low — grounds the freedom to eat ordinary meat in God’s universal ownership of creation. |
Chapter 11 — The Lord’s Supper; Order in Worship
| Passage | Theme | Related Character | OT/NT Connection | Translation Sensitivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Corinthians 11:7 | Order in Worship | Adam (implicit) | Allusion: Genesis 1:27 (man and woman as the image of God) | High — must not be read to deny woman’s equal bearing of God’s image (Genesis 1:27 explicitly includes both); Paul’s “image and glory” language in context addresses relational order, not differential image-bearing. Flag for careful teaching alongside ulo/kephalē note. |
| 1 Corinthians 11:8-9 | Order in Worship | Adam, Eve | Allusion: Genesis 2:18-23 (woman created from/for man) | High — same headship-sensitivity profile as κεφαλή in 07_semantic_analysis.md. |
| 1 Corinthians 11:23-25 | The Lord’s Supper | Christ; typologically, Moses (covenant-blood ceremony) | Allusion: Exodus 24:8 (“the blood of the covenant”); fulfillment of Jeremiah 31:31-34 (the promised new covenant) | Critical — direct link to “Bagong Tipan” (New Covenant) already established via baseline covenant term; institution words must be translated completely and faithfully without resolving the Real Presence/memorial debate. |
Chapter 12 — Spiritual Gifts and the Body of Christ
No direct OT quotation identified in this chapter. The body metaphor (12:12-27) is Paul’s own extended image rather than a citation; no new citation-consistency rule required beyond the sōma Christou note already recorded in 07_semantic_analysis.md. Chapter reviewed — no new OT citations found.
Chapter 13 — Love as the Greater Way
No direct OT quotation appears in this chapter. However, its content is thematically continuous with the OT love command underlying Romans 13:8-10 (see Part C below), even though 1 Corinthians 13 itself does not cite it directly. Chapter reviewed — no direct OT citation, but see Part C thematic link to Leviticus 19:18 via the Romans parallel.
Chapter 14 — Order in Worship
| Passage | Theme | Related Character | OT/NT Connection | Translation Sensitivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Corinthians 14:21 | Order in Worship / Spiritual Gifts | none | Direct quotation: Isaiah 28:11-12 (“by people of strange tongues… I will speak to this people”) | High — tongues-as-judgment-sign background; relevant to the continuationist/cessationist sensitivity already flagged for γλῶσσα. |
| 1 Corinthians 14:25 | Order in Worship | none | Allusion: Isaiah 45:14; cf. Zechariah 8:23; Daniel 2:47 (“falling down… declaring that God is really among you”) | Medium. |
Chapter 15 — The Resurrection of Christ and Believers
The core passage (15:1-11) and its OT/typological content are already treated in full in 07_semantic_analysis.md Part A. The chapter’s remainder (vv.12-58) is the letter’s single densest cluster of direct OT quotation and typology.
| Passage | Theme | Related Character | OT/NT Connection | Translation Sensitivity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 | The Resurrection of Christ and Believers; Messianic Promise | Christ | Fulfillment formula “according to the Scriptures,” pointing to Isaiah 53:4-6, 10-12 (the suffering Servant, death for sins); Psalm 16:10 (not abandoned to decay, cf. Acts 2:27, 13:35); Hosea 6:2 and Jonah 1:17 (third-day/three-days pattern, cf. Matthew 12:40) | Critical — this is the letter’s central fulfillment claim; must retain the closed, fixed apostolic content and its direct grounding in specific, identifiable OT texts, not a vague or generalized “prophecy fulfilled” gesture. |
| 1 Corinthians 15:20-23 | The Resurrection of Christ and Believers | Christ (as “firstfruits”) | Typology: Leviticus 23:10-11 (the firstfruits offering) | Medium — “unang bunga” retains strong native intelligibility in Filipino agricultural regions (see 07_semantic_analysis.md). |
| 1 Corinthians 15:21-22, 45-49 | The Resurrection of Christ and Believers | Adam; Christ (the “last Adam”) | Typology: Genesis 2:7 (“the first man Adam became a living being”); Genesis 3 (the Fall) | High — major typological parallel to Romans 5:12-21; rendering of “Adan” and the Adam-Christ contrast must match Romans usage exactly (see Part C below). |
| 1 Corinthians 15:25 | The Resurrection of Christ and Believers; messianic reign | Christ | Direct quotation: Psalm 110:1 (“he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet”) — a messianic psalm also quoted in Matthew 22:44, Acts 2:34-35 | High — messianic-reign claim; keep exclusive-Lordship force intact, consistent with baseline lordship_of_christ. |
| 1 Corinthians 15:27 | The Resurrection of Christ and Believers | Christ | Direct quotation: Psalm 8:6 (“God has put everything under his feet”) | Medium. |
| 1 Corinthians 15:32 | The Resurrection of Christ and Believers (contrastive) | none (quoted as a worldly slogan) | Direct quotation: Isaiah 22:13 (“let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die”) | Low-Medium — quoted ironically as the logical (and rejected) consequence if there is no resurrection; must not be mistaken for Paul’s own exhortation. |
| 1 Corinthians 15:45 | The Resurrection of Christ and Believers | Adam; Christ | Direct quotation: Genesis 2:7 | High — reuse of Adam typology; see Part C. |
| 1 Corinthians 15:54 | The Resurrection of Christ and Believers | none | Direct quotation: Isaiah 25:8 (“he will swallow up death forever”) | Low. |
| 1 Corinthians 15:55 | The Resurrection of Christ and Believers | none | Direct quotation: Hosea 13:14 (“O death, where is your sting?”) | Low. |
Chapter 16 — Closing: Christian Fellowship and Mission
No direct OT quotation or allusion identified. “Maranatha” (16:22) is an Aramaic liturgical exclamation, not an OT citation. Chapter reviewed — no new OT citations found.
PART B: MESSIANIC REFERENCES AND TYPOLOGY — SUMMARY
| Type/Pattern | Passage(s) | OT Root | Theological Significance | Filipino Rendering Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Christ as Paschal Lamb | 1 Corinthians 5:7 | Exodus 12; cf. Isaiah 53:7 | Substitutionary atonement; the church’s holiness rests on an already-accomplished sacrifice, not ongoing ritual re-offering | ”Paskuwa” — keep distinct from “Pasko” |
| Christ as the Rock | 1 Corinthians 10:4 | Exodus 17:6; Numbers 20:11 | Direct identification of the pre-incarnate Christ as Israel’s wilderness provider — a strong deity-of-Christ claim | Preserve direct identification (“ang Bato ay si Kristo”), not merely “like a rock” |
| Christ as the Last/Second Adam | 1 Corinthians 15:21-22, 45-49 | Genesis 2:7; Genesis 3 | Christ reverses the death introduced by the first Adam, securing resurrection life for all united to him; foundational to the doctrine “The Resurrection of Christ and Believers" | "huling Adan” — must match Romans 5’s Adam-Christ contrast exactly (see Part C) |
| Christ as Firstfruits | 1 Corinthians 15:20, 23 | Leviticus 23:10-11 | Christ’s resurrection guarantees and previews the coming resurrection-harvest of believers | ”unang bunga” |
| Christ’s Messianic Reign | 1 Corinthians 15:25, 27 | Psalm 110:1; Psalm 8:6 | Christ’s present reign moving toward final, total subjection of all opposing powers | Consistent with lordship_of_christ baseline doctrine |
| The New Covenant | 1 Corinthians 11:25 | Jeremiah 31:31-34; Exodus 24:8 | The Lord’s Supper enacts and proclaims the new covenant sealed in Christ’s blood | ”Bagong Tipan” — baseline covenant term, “tipan” |
| Testing/Grumbling Against Christ (retrospective identification) | 1 Corinthians 10:9 | Numbers 21:5-6 | Christ identified as present and active in Israel’s wilderness history | Preserve the direct claim; do not generalize to “testing God” only |
PART C: PARALLELS TO THE ROMANS CURRICULUM LANGUAGE PACKAGE
The following table records every point of direct thematic or lexical overlap between 1 Corinthians and Romans (the only prior curriculum in this Language Package), with the rendering-consistency rule required for each.
| 1 Corinthians Passage | Romans Passage | Shared Theme | Shared Term(s) | Consistency Rule |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Corinthians 12:3 | Romans 10:9 | Lordship of Christ / confession of faith | ”Jesus is Lord” = “Si Jesus ay Panginoon” | Verbatim identical rendering required per baseline cross-document consistency rule; no variation permitted between the two curricula. |
| 1 Corinthians 15:10 | Romans 11:6; Romans 4:4-5 | Grace versus works/merit | biyaya (grace) | Grace-versus-merit contrast must exclude any utang na loob framing in both curricula identically; 15:10’s “not I, but the grace of God” is a prime candidate for the baseline’s mandatory grace-teaching note. |
| 1 Corinthians 15:21-22, 45-49 | Romans 5:12-21 | Adam-Christ typology; universal sin and death reversed by Christ | Adan (Adam); kasalanan (sin); pagkabuhay na mag-uli (resurrection) | The Filipino proper name “Adan” and the first-Adam/last-Adam contrast structure must be rendered identically in both curricula; verify against actual Romans 5 Phase 2 output for “Adan” spelling and word order once available. |
| 1 Corinthians 13 (entire chapter) | Romans 13:8-10 | Love as the fulfillment/greater way of Christian conduct | pag-ibig (agapē) | Gap flagged for verification: ἀγάπη/“love” is not present in the Romans baseline translation_memory.json, meaning Romans 13:8-10 (which quotes Leviticus 19:18, “love your neighbor as yourself”) was translated in Phase 2 without a recorded glossary entry. Before finalizing “pag-ibig” as the Critical-risk term for this curriculum, the actual Romans 13:8-10 Phase 2 output must be checked; if a different Filipino rendering was used there, either (a) align 1 Corinthians 13 to that existing rendering, or (b) formally update the Romans translation memory to “pag-ibig” retroactively so both curricula remain consistent. This reconciliation must happen before Phase 2 translation of 1 Corinthians 13 begins. |
| 1 Corinthians 8:1-13; 10:23-33 | Romans 14:1-23 | Christian liberty, conscience, and disputable practices affecting weaker believers | budhi/konsensya (conscience); karapatan (right/liberty) | Neither “budhi/konsensya” nor “karapatan” appears in the Romans baseline glossary despite Romans 14 discussing the same conceptual territory in different vocabulary (Romans 14 uses “weak in faith” rather than “conscience” as its operative term). Treat as new terms introduced by this curriculum, but ensure the underlying doctrine — freedom governed by love for the weaker believer, not by personal certainty alone — is taught identically to Romans 14’s teaching. |
| 1 Corinthians 12:4-11, 27-31 | Romans 12:6-8 | Spiritual gifts within one body | kaloob na espirituwal (spiritual gifts) | [BASELINE — REUSE] exact term; both passages list varied gifts within a unified body — teach as the same doctrine, same term, consistent with baseline spiritual_gifts. |
| 1 Corinthians 12:12-27 | Romans 12:4-5 | The church as one body with many members | katawan ni Kristo (body of Christ); mga bahagi (members) | Same metaphor, same doctrine (church_as_gods_people in baseline); ensure “katawan ni Kristo” in 1 Corinthians 12 is not confused with the Lord’s Supper “body” language of 1 Corinthians 11 (see note in 08_core_glossary.md). |
| 1 Corinthians 6:19; 3:16 | Romans 12:1 | The believer’s body/the church as set apart to God | templo (temple); banal (holy) | Both texts ground ethical holiness in the body’s consecration to God; “templo” (1 Cor.) and “buhay na handog” (living sacrifice, Rom. 12:1) are distinct images but the same underlying doctrine of sanctification/separation_unto_gods_service. |
| 1 Corinthians 1:29-31 | Romans 3:27; Romans 4:2 | Boasting excluded before God | pagmamalaki/pagyabang (boasting) | Same doctrinal point (no ground for self-congratulation before God); ensure the redirected “boast in the Lord” (1 Cor. 1:31, quoting Jeremiah 9:24) is rendered the same way wherever the identical Jeremiah quotation might recur. |
| 1 Corinthians 10:1-13 | Romans 15:4 | The didactic purpose of OT narrative for the church | (no single shared term; shared principle) | Both passages assert that OT narrative was written “for our instruction/warning.” Teaching materials should cross-reference Romans 15:4 explicitly when introducing 1 Corinthians 10’s wilderness typology. |
| 1 Corinthians 5:7 | Romans 3:25 | Christ’s atoning, substitutionary death | (Paskuwa / propitiation concept — no baseline term for “propitiation” recorded) | Both ground the cross in OT sacrificial categories (Passover lamb; propitiatory sacrifice); ensure both are taught as pointing to the same single, sufficient, historical atoning act — not two separate atonement events. |
| 1 Corinthians 15:54-57 | Romans 8:38-39 | Assurance grounded in Christ’s victory over death | tagumpay (victory) | Same doctrinal payload — nothing (including death) can finally separate or defeat the believer united to Christ; teach as complementary halves of one assurance doctrine (assurance_of_salvation in baseline). |
PART D: RENDERING-CONSISTENCY RULES FOR SHARED QUOTATIONS
-
Jesus is Lord (1 Corinthians 12:3 / Romans 10:9): Render identically as “Si Jesus ay Panginoon” in every occurrence across both curricula, with no stylistic variation. This is a hard cross-document consistency rule inherited directly from the baseline.
-
Adam-Christ typology (1 Corinthians 15:21-22, 45-49 / Romans 5:12-21): Use “Adan” as the fixed Filipino proper-name form. The first-Adam/last-Adam contrast structure (“unang Adan” / “huling Adan”) must appear in the same word order and register in both curricula. Confirm against the actual Phase 2 Romans 5 output once available; if Romans used a different construction, 1 Corinthians 15 must be reconciled to it (or vice versa, with a formal translation-memory update), not left divergent.
-
Grace-versus-merit passages (1 Corinthians 15:10 / Romans 4:4-5, 11:5-6): Every occurrence must exclude an utang na loob (reciprocal debt) reading. Where Paul says grace produced fruit/labor (1 Corinthians 15:10’s “I worked harder than any of them”), the Filipino rendering must make clear the labor flows from grace and is not a repayment of it.
-
Leviticus 19:18 / love command (thematic link between 1 Corinthians 13 and Romans 13:8-10): Before Phase 2 translation of 1 Corinthians 13 begins, verify the Romans 13:9 Filipino rendering of “love your neighbor as yourself.” If “pag-ibig” was not already used there, escalate to theologian review for a retroactive translation-memory decision, since 1 Corinthians 13 establishes “pag-ibig” as this Language Package’s highest-frequency Critical-risk new term.
-
Christ our Passover (1 Corinthians 5:7) and propitiation (Romans 3:25): Both must be taught as pointing to the single, historical, once-for-all atoning death of Christ (consistent with the baseline’s
resurrectionandimputed_righteousnessonce-for-all framing) — never as separate or repeatable sacrificial events, and never assimilated to the sacrificial-Mass framework of Filipino Catholic Eucharistic theology. -
Messianic psalms (Psalm 110:1 at 1 Corinthians 15:25; Psalm 8:6 at 1 Corinthians 15:27): If a future curriculum in this Language Package treats Hebrews (which quotes both psalms extensively) or the Gospels (Matthew 22:44), the same Filipino renderings established here must be reused without alteration.
-
General OT citation formula (“according to the Scriptures,” “as it is written”): Render consistently as “ayon sa mga Kasulatan” / “ayon sa nasusulat,” matching the baseline’s
fulfillment_of_prophecydoctrine language already used in Romans. -
Book-name conventions: All OT book names newly introduced by this curriculum’s citations (Exodo, Levitico, Mga Bilang, Deuteronomio, Job, Jeremias, Oseas, Jonas, Zacarias, Daniel) must be added to the shared citation-convention table used across this Language Package’s
12_ai_translation_requirements.md-equivalent instruction set for 1 Corinthians, alongside the baseline’s existing Genesis/Mga Awit/Isaias/Habakuk/Joel entries.
End of cross-reference analysis. All sixteen chapters of 1 Corinthians have been reviewed for OT quotation, allusion, and typology. Chapters 12, 13, and 16 are noted as reviewed with no new direct OT citations found, but chapter 13 carries a flagged thematic link (Leviticus 19:18 via Romans 13:8-10) requiring reconciliation before Phase 2 translation. See 10_biblical_theme_map.md for the full thematic structure this cross-reference data supports.
