“Paul attacks the Corinthians because, although they are right in the middle of Greece, they have no truly wise people in their midst, even though many had gone to preach wisdom to them.”
Origen of Alexandria, 3th c. — COMMENTARY ON 1 CORINTHIANS 2.27.20-22
Original
5I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren?

In context
3Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?
4If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.
— 1 Corinthians 6:5 —
6But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.
7Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?
