Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
All Commentaries on 1 Corinthians 1:25 Go To 1 Corinthians 1
John Chrysostom
AD 407
The folly and the wisdom spoken of here are more apparent than real. For the philosophers could not achieve what a few unlearned men accomplished, namely, the conversion of the whole world. The philosophers spoke about trivialities and convinced only a few. The apostles spoke about God, righteousness and judgment and converted a great many.
