19 For Scripture says-'I will bring the philosophy of the philosophers to nought, and the shrewdness of the shrewd I will make of no account.'
20 Where is the Philosopher? where the Teacher of the Law? where the Disputant of to-day? Has not God shown the world's philosophy to be folly?
21 For since the world, in God's wisdom, did not by its philosophy learn to know God, God saw fit, by the 'folly' of our proclamation, to save those who believe in Christ!
22 While Jews ask for miraculous signs, and Greeks study philosophy,
23 We are proclaiming Christ crucified!-to the Jews an obstacle, to the Gentiles mere folly,
24 But to those who have received the Call, whether Jews or Greeks, Christ, the Power of God and the Wisdom of God!
