Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;
All Commentaries on 1 Corinthians 3:21 Go To 1 Corinthians 3
John Chrysostom
AD 407
Wherefore let no man glory in men; for all things are yours. He comes again to the former topic, pointing out that not even for their spiritual things ought they to be highminded, as having nothing of themselves. Since then the wisdom from without is hurtful, and the spiritual gifts were not given by you, what have you wherein to boast? And in regard to the wisdom from without, Let no man deceive himself, says he, because they were conceited about a thing which in truth did more harm than good. But here, inasmuch as the thing spoken of was really advantageous, Let no man glory. And he orders his speech more gently: for all things are yours.
