'Wisdom' in the Bible
For it is written, "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the intelligence of the intelligent I will confound."
Where [is] the wise person? Where [is] the scribe? Where [is] the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?
For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom did not know God, God was pleased through the foolishness of preaching to save those who believe.
For indeed, Jews ask for sign miracles and Greeks seek wisdom,
but to those [who are] called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ [is] the power of God and the wisdom of God.
For the foolishness of God is wiser than human [wisdom], and the weakness of God [is] stronger than human [strength].
But from him you are in Christ Jesus, who became wisdom to us from God, and righteousness and sanctification and redemption,
And I, [when I] came to you, brothers, did not come with superiority of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God.
and my speech and my preaching [were] not with the persuasiveness of wisdom, but with a demonstration of the Spirit and power,
in order that your faith would not be in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
Now we do speak wisdom among the mature, but wisdom not of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are perishing,
but we speak the hidden wisdom of God in a mystery, which God predestined before the ages for our glory,
[things] which we also speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in [words] taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual [things] to spiritual [people].
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God, for it is written, "The one who catches the wise in their craftiness,"
For to one is given a word of wisdom through the Spirit, and to another a word of knowledge by the same Spirit,
