A Corinthian believer would speak in tongues, proclaiming God’s truth to someone who spoke that language, and then that believer, or another believer in the church, was to interpret what was spoken so that the entire assembly could understand what was said. What, then, is praying in tongues, and how is it different than speaking in tongues?
Kung ang isang mananampalataya sa Corinto ay magsalita sa ibang wika at mangaral ng katotohanan ng Diyos sa isang mananampalataya sa iglesia na nakakaunawa ng wikang iyon, kailangan na ang pinangaralan o ang isang miembro ng iglesia na may kaloob ng pagpapaliwanag ng ibang wika ay ipaliwanag ang kanyang sinabi sa buong kapulungan upang maunawaan ng lahat ang kanyang sinabi.
