Although they claimed ¹  to be wise, they became fools

Blind fools! Which is greater, the gold or the temple that makes the gold sacred?

You fools! ¹  Didn’t the one who made the outside make the inside as well? ² 

For since you are so wise, you put up with ¹  fools gladly.

We are fools for Christ, but you are wise in Christ! We are weak, but you are strong! You are distinguished, we are dishonored!
