1 Corinthians 2:6

Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect. "We" refers to Paul and his fellow-preachers. Though the gospel abjured carnal wisdom, yet it has a wisdom of its own, a divine wisdom, which is imparted to and recognized by those who have become full-grown Christians. "The perfect" are the full-grown in Christ, instead of babes. Babes must be fed on milk, but the grown can endure strong meat (1Co 3:2). For such there is a depth of wisdom revealed in the gospel, but "not the wisdom of this world".

Princes of this world. Leading men of the Jews, Greeks and Romans. They had not learned this divine wisdom.

1 Corinthians 2:11

For what man knoweth, etc. A man's spirit knows all his secrets, though these are unknown to another man. So God's Spirit knows the Divine secrets, and imparts these wherever he dwells in full measure as the Spirit of Knowledge.
