1 I ja došavši k vama, braćo, ne dođoh s visokom reči ili premudrosti da vam javljam svedočanstvo Božije. 2 Jer nisam mislio da znam šta među vama osim Isusa Hrista, i to raspetog. 3 I ja bejah među vama u slabosti, i u strahu i u velikom drhtanju. 4 I reč moja, i poučenje moje ne beše u nadgovorljivim rečima ljudske premudrosti, nego u dokazivanju Duha i sile. 5 Da vera vaša ne bude u mudrosti ljudskoj nego u sili Božijoj. 6 Ali premudrost govorimo koja je u savršenima, a ne premudrost veka ovog ni knezova veka ovog koji prolaze. 7 Nego govorimo premudrost Božiju u tajnosti sakrivenu, koju odredi Bog pre sveta za slavu našu; 8 koje nijedan od knezova veka ovog ne pozna; jer da su je poznali, ne bi Gospoda slave razapeli. 9 Nego kao što je pisano: Šta oko ne vide, i uho ne ču, i u srce čoveku ne dođe, ono ugotovi Bog onima, koji Ga ljube. 10 A nama je Bog otkrio Duhom svojim; jer Duh sve ispituje, i dubine Božije. 11 Jer ko od ljudi zna šta je u čoveku osim duha čovečijeg koji živi u njemu? Tako i u Bogu šta je niko ne zna osim Duha Božijeg. 12 A mi ne primismo duha ovog sveta, nego Duha koji je iz Boga, da znamo šta nam je darovano od Boga; 13 koje i govorimo ne rečima što je naučila čovečija premudrost, nego šta uči Duh Sveti; i duhovne stvari duhovno radimo. 14 A telesni čovek ne razume šta je od Duha Božijeg; jer mu se čini ludost i ne može da razume, jer treba duhovno da se razgleda. 15 Duhovni pak sve razgleda, a njega samog niko ne razgleda. 16 Jer ko pozna um Gospodnji da Ga pouči? A mi um Hristov imamo.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Nothing was ever more prepared for combat than the spirit of Paul; or rather, I should say, not his spirit, (for he was not himself the inventor of these things,) but, nothing was ever equal to the grace working within him, which overcometh all things.

For [the Scripture] saith, "Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which He hath prepared for them that wait for Him." Chapter XXXV — Immense is this reward.
… forth the material, animal, and spiritual, saying in one place, "As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy;" and in another place, "But the animal man receiveth not the things of the Spirit;" and again: "He that is spiritual judgeth all things."

But yet we opened wide the mouth of our heart, after those supernal streams of …

… in mentioning this, he hath mentioned also the resurrection of our bodies, and the manifestation of His miracles here, and our partaking of His kingdom, and the good things, which "eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man." For all these things He bestowed on us by that gift.
