1 Corinthians 1:22 in Context — 1 Corinthians 1

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.

23 Mas nós pregamos a Cristo crucificado, [que é] motivo de ofensa para os Judeus, e loucura para os gregos.

24 Porém aos que são chamados, tanto judeus como gregos, Cristo [é] poder de Deus e sabedoria de Deus.
