But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.
Pero si no pueden controlarse, cásense. Es mejor casarse que quemarse de pasión.
El matrimonio es la solución bíblica para quienes luchan con el deseo sexual y no pueden mantenerse célibes.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the first century, the city of Corinth was a major port in ancient Greece, notorious for its immorality and idol worship, which created challenges for the early Christian community there. Paul wrote his letter to the Corinthians to address practical questions they had about daily life, including marriage and sexual ethics, as the church grappled with influences from surrounding pagan culture. In this verse, Paul is specifically counseling unmarried believers that if they struggle with uncontrolled sexual desires, marriage is a better option than yielding to temptation, with "burn" referring to the inner turmoil of unfulfilled lust.
