VERS. VI.

〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉.

But the Wisdom not of this World.

THE Apostle mentions a fourfold Wisdom.

I. Heathen Wisdom, or that of the Philosophers, Chap. I. 22. which was commonly called among the Jews, 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 Grecian Wisdom. Which was so undervalued by them, that they joyned these two under the same curse. Cursed is he, that breeds hogs, and cursed is he who teacheth his son Grecian Wisdom a 1.1
II. Jewish Wisdom: that of the Scribes and Pharisees, who crucified Christ, vers. 8.
III. The Wisdom of the Gospel, vers. 7.
IV. The Wisdom 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, of this World: distinguished, as it seems, from the rest, where This World, is to be taken in that sense, as 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 is, as it is opposed to 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 The world to come. And he speaks of the last and highest Wisdom, which, who is there, that could obtain 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, In this World, before the revelation of the Gospel in the coming of Christ, which was 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, The World to come? And this is that the Apostle does, namely, to shew, that the highest, yea, the soundest Wisdom of the Ages before going was not in any manner to be compared with the brightness of the Evangelick Wisdom.
