1 Corinthians 2:6
Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect. "We" refers to
Paul and his fellow-preachers. Though the gospel abjured carnal wisdom,
yet it has a wisdom of its own, a divine wisdom, which is imparted to
and recognized by those who have become full-grown Christians. "The
perfect" are the full-grown in Christ, instead of babes. Babes must be
fed on milk, but the grown can endure strong meat (1 Corinthians 3:2). For such
there is a depth of wisdom revealed in the gospel, but "not the wisdom
of this world".
Princes of this world. Leading men of the Jews, Greeks and Romans.
They had not learned this divine wisdom.
