Can't using this word KATARGHSHi in 1Cor 1:28 be such an indication? KAI
TA AGENH TO KOSMOU KAI TA EXOUQENHMENA EXELHXATO hO QEOS, TA MH ONTA,
hINA TA ONTA KATARGHSHi. Doesn't subject's presince indicate this word to
be passive in 1Cor 2:6?

By the way, have you ever met anywhere TA ONTA or TA MH ONTA having
meaning like this?

Thank you.

Dmitriy
