# General Information
Some translations put verse 28 and the first part of verse 29 in parentheses because the second part of verse 29 appears to give a reason for what Paul taught in verses 25-27 about not asking questions of conscience.
# the conscience of the other man, I mean, and not yours
Some translations put these words, along with the words in the verse before this one, in parentheses because 1) the form of "yours" here is singular, but Paul uses the plural form immediately before and after this sentence, and 2) the words "For why should my freedom be judged by another's conscience?" in this verse seem to build on "eat whatever is set before you without asking questions of conscience" ([1 Corinthians 10:27](../10/27.md)) rather than "the conscience of the other man." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-you]])
Here Paul explains whose conscience he was writing about in verse 28.
# and not yours
Paul is speaking to the Corinthians as if they were one person, so the word "yours" here is singular. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-you]])
# For why ... conscience?
Possible meanings for this question, along with the question in the next verse, are 1) the word "for" refers back to [1 Corinthians 10:27](../10/27.md). Alternate translation: "I am not to ask questions of conscience, so why ... conscience?" or 2) Paul is quoting what some Corinthians were thinking. Alternate translation: "As some of you might be thinking, 'For why ... conscience?'"
# why should my freedom be judged by another's conscience?
The speaker wants the hearer to answer the question in his mind. Alternate translation: "You should know without me telling you that no one should be able to say I am doing wrong just because that person has ideas about right and wrong that are different from mine." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])
# For why should my freedom be judged by another's conscience?
This is a rhetorical question, and it can be expressed as a statement. The verb "be judged" can be translated with an active form. Alternate translation: "For another person's conscience should not judge my freedom" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
