Exegesis

Each of these verbs is followed by a manner construction using hos {ὡς | hōs} “as, like” plus the predicate nominative nepios {νήπιος | nḗ-pi-os} “child,” forming a rhythmic parallelism that underscores how every aspect of communication and thought belonged to a childish mode.

In context1 Corinthians 13:11

When I was a child , I spoke as a child, I thought as a child, I reasoned as a child; but when I became a man , I set aside the ways of a child.
