1 Corinthians 2:5

2:5 so that your faith would not be based on human wisdom but on the power of God.

1 Corinthians 3:4

3:4 For whenever someone says, “I am with Paul,” or “I am with Apollos,” are you not merely human?


tn Grk “are you not men,” i.e., (fallen) humanity without the Spirit’s influence. Here Paul does not say “walking in accordance with” as in the previous verse; he actually states the Corinthians are this. However, this is almost certainly rhetorical hyperbole.
