“O mundo antigo empregava várias polaridades para descrever a humanidade: romanos e bárbaros, judeus e gentios, escravos e livres. Todavia, nesta passagem, Paulo apresentou a única polaridade que tem importância crucial; ele distinguiu os que perecem e os que são salvos. A linha divisória entre os dois grupos é a mensagem da cru: ‘A palavra da cruz é loucura para os que se perdem, mas para nós, que somos salvos, poder de Deus’ (1Co 1. 18).”
