The description of love in 1 Corinthians 13 — 'love is patient, love is kind...' — is arguably the most celebrated passage in Paul's letters, its style remarkably different from his usual argumentative prose. The chapter functions rhetorically as the center of a three-chapter argument (12-14) about spiritual gifts, insisting that love is the more excellent way regardless of which gifts are exercised. Paul defines love entirely through behavior (fifteen verbs/adjectives in verses 4-7) rather than feeling — love as a pattern of acting rather than a state of emotion. Its use in wedding ceremonies represents a contextual shift, since Paul wrote it to correct boastful charismatics, not to describe romantic love.
