Absent in body, but present in spirit 몸은 떠나 있지만 마음은 함께 있다. (고린도전서 5:3)

성경구절

“Even though I am not physically present, I am with you in spirit. And I have already passed judgment on the one who did this, just as if I were present.” “내가 실로 몸으로는 떠나 있으나 영으로는 함께 있어서 거기 있는 것 같이 이런 일 행한 자를 이미 판단하였노라.”

기원과 적용

그리스의 수도 고린도에 있는 교회로 보내진 편지에서, 사도바울은 새어머니와 결혼함으로써 근친상간을 저지른 한 교인에게 성적인 부도덕함을 꾸짖었습니다. 이 편지는 바울이 고린도의 반대에 위치한 에베소에 있을 때 쓰여졌습니다. 바울은 비록 몸은 그 교회와 함께 있지 못했지만, 마음으로는 그 교회와 함께 있다고 편지에 썼습니다. “몸은 떠나 있지만 마음은 함께 있다”는 표현은 “몸은 함께 있지만 마음은 떠났다”라는 표현에서 기인했습니다. 선생님들은 교실안에는 있지만 수업에 집중하지 못하는 학생들을 설명하기 위해 “마음이 콩밭에 있다” 라는 표현을 즐겨 사용합니다.
