Commentary on 1 Corinthians 8:2 (Summary)

1 Corinthians 8:2 (ESV)

2 If anyone imagines that he knows something, he does not yet know as he ought to know.

There is no true knowledge without humility and love. Later, in 1 Corinthians 13:1–13, Paul will give a beautiful exposition of the priority of love over knowledge (and other gifts).
