1 Corinthians 13

Παῦλος emphasizes the supremacy of **ἀγάπη** (agape), declaring that spiritual gifts like tongues, prophecy, knowledge, faith, and even sacrificial acts are worthless without it[1][6]. He describes ἀγάπη as patient, kind, not envious or boastful, enduring all things, never failing, surpassing childish ways, with faith, hope, and ἀγάπη abiding, the greatest being ἀγάπη[1][3][4].
