1 Corinthians 1:25 Douay-Rheims

For the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

Philoxenus of Mabbug

c. A.D. 450–523 Patristic

The Apostle Paul considered Him as one "of no reputation", and the crucifiers considered Him to lack understanding, and His enemies accounted Him to be without knowledge and intelligence, and concerning Jesus Paul spake against them, "The foolishness of God is wiser than the children of men."
