The Corinthian Christians are commanded to “tarry” or “wait” one for another. He lovingly teaches them to take care to partake the Lord’s Supper in a godly manner as he has said. He urges them to observe the solemnity and sacred of the Lord’s Supper through proper self-examination and confession of sins, that they refrain from wanton feasting before the time of the Lord’s Supper is observed. If they would like to have a fellowship meal together, it may be done at home and not in church. As Barnes said well, “Do not be guilty of disorder, intemperance, and gluttony.”
