'World' in the Bible

Where is the wise? where scribe? where disputer of this world? has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?

For since, in the wisdom of God, the world by wisdom has not known God, God has been pleased by the foolishness of the preaching to save those that believe.

But God has chosen the foolish things of the world, that he may put to shame the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world, that he may put to shame the strong things;

and the ignoble things of the world, and the despised, has God chosen, and things that are not, that he may annul the things that are;

But we speak wisdom among the perfect; but wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who come to nought.

But we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is of God, that we may know the things which have been freely given to us of God:

Let no one deceive himself: if any one thinks himself to be wise among you in this world, let him become foolish, that he may be wise.

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God; for it is written, He who takes the wise in their craftiness.

Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things coming, all are yours;

For I think that God has set us the apostles for the last, as appointed to death. For we have become a spectacle to the world, both to angels and men.

insulted, we entreat: we are become as the offscouring of the world, the refuse of all, until now.

not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the avaricious and rapacious, or idolaters, since then ye should go out of the world.

Do ye not then know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world is judged by you, are ye unworthy of the smallest judgments?

and they that use the world, as not disposing of it as their own; for the fashion of this world passes.

but he that has married cares for the things of the world, how he shall please his wife.

There is a difference between the wife and the virgin. The unmarried cares for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and spirit; but she that has married cares for the things of the world, how she shall please her husband.

concerning then the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God save one.

But being judged, we are disciplined of the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.

There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of undistinguishable sound.
