1 Corinthians 2:15

2:15 The one who is spiritual discerns ¹  all things, yet he himself is understood ²  by no one.

1 Corinthians 3:1

Immaturity and Self-deception

3:1 So, brothers and sisters, ³  I could not speak to you as spiritual people, but instead as people of the flesh, ⁴  as infants in Christ.

[2:15]  ¹ tn Or “evaluates.”

[2:15]  ² tn Or “is evaluated” (i.e., “is subject to evaluation”); Grk “he himself is discerned,” that is, the person without the Spirit does not understand the person with the Spirit, particularly in relation to the life of faith.

[3:1]  ³ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:10.

[3:1]  ⁴ tn Grk “fleshly [people]”; the Greek term here is σαρκινός (BDAG 914 s.v. 1).
