F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - 1 Corinthians 1:26-31

God’s Glory in Men’s Weakness 1 Corinthians 1:26-31 ; 1 Corinthians 2:1-5 Like the sons of Jesse before Samuel, so do the successive regiments on which the world relies pass before Christ. The wise, the mighty, the noble, the great, the things that are! And the King says, I have not chosen these. The warriors with whom He will win the world to Himself are the nobodies, the ciphers, the people who in the world’s estimate do not count. Do not depreciate yourself, but give yourself to Him; He... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 1 Corinthians 1:1-31

The epistle is to the Church. Its messages are only for those who have been brought into fellowship with Jesus Christ. The character of the Church is indicated in the words, "sanctified in Christ Jesus, called saints." The equipment of the Church is indicated in the phrase, "enriched in Him." The foundation proposition of the epistle is that the Church is called into the fellowship of Jesus Christ. The first part of the letter is corrective. It deals with evidences of the dominance of the... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - 1 Corinthians 1:1-30

The Church of God at Corinth 1 Corinthians 1:1-30 INTRODUCTORY WORDS We propose taking several studies from the First Epistle to the Corinthians. There will be much to consider here which should help in the time of need. The introductory words of the First Epistle to the Corinthians are most suggestive. We cull certain things for your concentration, 1. "Paul" here is a word that, in itself, means much. Paul was formerly known as Saul of Tarsus. After he led one, Paulus, to Christ he seems to... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 1:18

THE RELIGION OF REDEMPTION‘The preaching of the Cross.’ 1 Corinthians 1:18 Christianity is the religion of redemption; it is for that reason that the Apostle gives as the motto and the summary of the Gospel this little sentence in the text, ‘The preaching of the Cross.’ For the Cross is the symbol, as it once was the instrument, of our redemption. Whether it were to Galatia or to Corinth, to rude and barbarous rustics in their impetuosity and changefulness, or whether it were to the... read more

A MESSAGE FOR JEW AND GREEK‘The Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: but we preach Christ crucified.’ 1 Corinthians 1:22-Isaiah : St. Paul is here contrasting the expectations which men would naturally form of the Gospel of Christ with what that Gospel really is. He divides the world into two parts. Some, like the Jews, were requiring a sign; and others, like the Greeks, were seeking after wisdom. The same message of the Cross came to both. I. A sign refused.—‘The Jews... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 1:23

THE ‘FOOLISHNESS’ OF PREACHING‘Unto the Greeks foolishness.’ 1 Corinthians 1:23 It is a good many years since St. Paul, writing to the Corinthians, spoke of the foolishness of preaching, and then he did not mean by that expression what the words in their modern sense would imply. All through the centuries this has been a popular theme and will always remain so. St. Paul did not mean what later critics usually mean: that the preacher’s precepts are foolish, his knowledge insufficient, his... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 1:24

POWER AND WISDOM‘Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.’ 1 Corinthians 1:24 Be careful that you understand those words rightly. Not only that Christ is Divine ‘power’ and Divine ‘wisdom,’ but much more than that. Christ embodies, Christ performs, Christ is God’s ‘Power’ and God’s ‘Wisdom’; and by Christ He uses the world; by Christ he guides the world; and in Christ we are to seek and find God’s ‘Power’; and in Christ we are to seek and find God’s ‘Wisdom’; for ‘He is made’ and... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 1:10-31

Christ Crucified For Us And The New Birth Through the Spirit Are the Two Central Foundations of Christianity (1:10-4:21). Paul begins this section by revealing his concern that the Corinthians are in danger of splitting up into different parties around the teaching of certain leading teachers (1 Corinthians 1:10-17), and concentrating on secondary aspects of that teaching, rather than being united around the one central truth of Christ crucified, the one fact which is central to the Christian... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 1:18

The Centrality and Supreme Importance of The Word of the Cross, of the Word of Christ and Him Crucified, in Which God’s True Wisdom Is Revealed to Men In Power (1:18-2:8) ‘For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.’ ‘The word of the cross.’ This contrasts with the ‘wisdom of word’. The latter signifies an emphasis on wisdom, revealed in many ways, in many forms, and made effective through the speaking of words,... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 1:19

‘For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the prudence of the prudent I will reject”.’ Paul now turns to Scripture to prove his point. The verse is cited from Isaiah 29:14 (LXX). There the professed people of God had turned away from God and His word and rejected the words of His true prophets, depending on their ‘wise’ leaders. Thus He warns them that what they look to as wisdom and prudence, the wisdom and prudence of their betters, the wisdom and prudence that has... read more
