1 Coríntios 1:29 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 1:29

That no flesh should glory in his presence.
] That is, "in the presence of God", as some copies, and the Arabic and Ethiopic versions read; not in their blood, birth, families, lineage, and natural descent; nor in their might, power, and dominion; nor in their riches, wealth, and substance; nor in their wisdom, learning, and parts: for however these may be gloried in before men, yet not before God. These are of no account with him, nor will they be regarded by him, or men on account of them; and he has taken a method in choosing and calling the reverse of these, to stain the glory of all flesh, that no man may attribute his salvation to any thing of the creature, but wholly to the sovereign grace and good pleasure of God.

1 Coríntios 1:29 In-Context

27 Pelo contrário, Deus escolheu as coisas loucas do mundo para confundir os sábios; e Deus escolheu as coisas fracas do mundo para confundir as fortes;

28 e Deus escolheu as coisas ignóbeis do mundo, e as desprezadas, e as que não são, para reduzir a nada as que são;

29 para que nenhum mortal se glorie na presença de Deus.

30 Mas vós sois dele, em Cristo Jesus, o qual para nós foi feito por Deus sabedoria, e justiça, e santificação, e redenção;

31 para que, como está escrito: Aquele que se gloria, glorie-se no Senhor.
