Contextual Overview

6 However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature, yet not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. 7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, 8 which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 9 But as it is written: "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,Nor have entered into the heart of manThe things which God has prepared for those who love Him." Isaiah 64:4 ">[fn] 10 But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. 11 For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God. 13 These things we also speak, not in words which man's wisdom teaches but which the Holy [fn] Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 14 But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. 15 But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Pero el que es espiritual - El hombre que está iluminado por el Espíritu Santo a diferencia del que está bajo la influencia de los sentidos solamente.

Juez - Griego: "Discernimientos". (margen); la misma palabra que en el verso anterior. Significa que el hombre espiritual tiene un discernimiento de estas verdades con respecto a las cuales el hombre sensual era ciego e ignorante.

Todas las cosas - No absolutamente todas las cosas; o no que él es omnisciente; pero que él tiene una visión de las cosas a las que el apóstol hizo referencia, es decir, de las cosas que el Espíritu Santo revela al hombre.

Sin embargo, él mismo es juzgado - Griego, como en el margen, "se discierne"; es decir, sus sentimientos, principios, puntos de vista, esperanzas, miedos, alegrías, no pueden ser completamente entendidos y apreciados por ningún hombre natural o sensual. Él no comprende los principios que lo activan; él no entra en sus alegrías; él no simpatiza con él en sus sentimientos. Esta es una cuestión de simple verdad y observación universal. La razón se agrega en el siguiente verso, que como el cristiano está influenciado por el Señor y el hombre natural no lo conoce, tampoco puede conocer al que está influenciado por él; Ese es el cristiano.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verso 1 Corintios 2:15 . Pero el espiritual juzga todas las cosas... El que tiene la mente de Cristo discierne y juzga todas las cosas espirituales: sin embargo, él mismo no es discernido por el mero hombre animal. Algunos suponen que la palabra ανακρινεται debe entenderse así: Examina, escudriña, convence, reprende , lo que parece querer decir en 1 Corintios 14:24 y leen el versículo así: El hombre espiritual, el cristiano bien instruido, convence, es decir, puede condenar fácilmente a todos los hombres, (παντα, acusando,) a todo hombre animal, de error y vicio; sin embargo, él mismo no es condenado por ningún hombre; su mente está iluminada, y su vida es santa; y por lo tanto el hombre animal no puede condenarlo de pecado. Este es un buen sentido, pero el primero parece el más natural. Véase Pearce y Rosenmuller.
