1 Corinthians 1:20 in Context — 1 Corinthians 1
18 Porque a palavra da cruz é loucura para os que perecem; mas para os que se salvam é poder de Deus.
19 Porque está escrito: Destruirei a sabedoria dos sábios, e aniquilarei a inteligência dos inteligentes.
20 Onde está o sábio? Onde está o escriba? Onde está o questionador desta era? Por acaso Deus não tornou a sabedoria deste mundo em loucura?
21 Pois já que, na sabedoria de Deus, o mundo não conheceu a Deus pela sabedoria, Deus se agradou de salvar os que creem por meio da loucura da pregação.
22 Porque os judeus pedem um sinal miraculoso, e os gregos buscam sabedoria.
