John 11:49

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all,

Have any of the princes or of the Pharisees believed on him?

Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? there is more hope of a fool than of him.

Woe unto those that call evil good and good evil; that put darkness for light and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!

Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the philosopher of this world? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

For we speak perfect wisdom of God, and not the wisdom of this age nor of the princes of this age, that come to nought,

Let no one deceive himself. If any one among you seems to be wise in this age, let them become a fool that they may be wise.

And those that had laid hold on Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.
