1 Corinthians 8:1 Douay-Rheims

Now concerning those things that are sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up; but charity edifieth.

Augustine of Hippo

A.D. 354–430 Patristic

Paul means that knowledge only does good in company with love. Otherwise it merely puffs a man into pride.
