Doesn't this verse seem out of place? To me, the end of verse 1 fits smoothly to go right into verse 3. However, there is a verse 2. The Holy Spirit wanted verse 2 included where it is.
Albert Barnes, in his commentary, gives insight:
"It is probable . . . that he meant to say, God had conferred great honor on men -- men so humble and weak that they might be compared to infants -- by making them the means of overthrowing His enemies, thus showing the greatness of the divine condescension."
