Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

1 Corinthians 1:30

_ _ But ... ye — in contrast to them that “glory” in worldly wisdom and greatness.

_ _ of him are — not of yourselves (Ephesians 2:8), but of Him (Romans 11:36). From Him ye are (that is, have spiritual life, who once were spiritually among the “things which are not.” 1 Corinthians 1:28).

_ _ in Christ — by living union with Him. Not “in the flesh” (1 Corinthians 1:26, 1 Corinthians 1:29).

_ _ of Godfrom God; emanating from Him and sent by Him.

_ _ is made unto ushas been made to us, to our eternal gain.

_ _ wisdom — unattainable by the worldly mode of seeking it (1 Corinthians 1:19, 1 Corinthians 1:20; contrast Colossians 2:3; Proverbs 8:1-36; Isaiah 9:6). By it we become “wise unto salvation,” owing to His wisdom in originating and executing the plan, whereas once we were “fools.”

_ _ righteousness — the ground of our justification (Jeremiah 23:5, Jeremiah 23:6; Romans 4:25; 2 Corinthians 5:21); whereas once we were “weak” (Romans 5:6). Isaiah 42:21; Isaiah 45:24.

_ _ sanctification — by His Spirit; whereas formerly we were “base.” Hereafter our righteousness and sanctification alike shall be both perfect and inherent. Now the righteousness wherewith we are justified is perfect, but not inherent; that wherewith we are sanctified is inherent, but not perfect [Hooker]. Now sanctification is perfect in principle, but not in attainment. These two are joined in the Greek as forming essentially but one thing, as distinguished from the “wisdom” in devising and executing the plan for us (“abounded toward us in all wisdom,” Ephesians 1:8), and “redemption,” the final completion of the scheme in the deliverance of the body (the position of “redemption” last shows that this limited sense is the one intended here). Luke 21:28; Romans 8:23; Ephesians 1:14; Ephesians 4:30.

_ _ redemption — whereas once we were “despised.”

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 1 Corinthians 1:17-31.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

1 Corinthians 1:30

Of him — Out of his free grace and mercy. Are ye Engrafted into Christ Jesus, who is made unto us that believe wisdom, who were before utterly foolish and ignorant. Righteousness — The sole ground of our justification, who were before under the wrath and curse of God. Sanctification — A principle of universal holiness, whereas before we were altogether dead in sin. And redemption — That is, complete deliverance from all evil, and eternal bliss both of soul and body.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

1 Corinthians 1:30

But (a) of him are ye in Christ Jesus, (27) who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:

(a) Whom he cast down before, now he lifts up, indeed, higher than all men: yet in such a way that he shows them that all their worthiness is outside of themselves, that is, it stands in Christ, and that of God.

(27) He teaches that especially and above all things, the Gospel ought not to be condemned, seeing that it contains the principal things that are to be desired, that is, true wisdom, the true way to obtain righteousness, the true way to live honestly and godly, and the true deliverance from all miseries and calamities.
