A.T. Robertson Commentary
"but unto them that are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God." — 1 Corinthians 1:24 (ASV)
But to them that are called (αυτοις δε τοις κλητοις). Dative case, to the called themselves.
Christ (Χριστον). Accusative case repeated, object of κηρυσσομεν, both
the power of God (θεου δυναμιν) and
the wisdom of God (θεου σοφιαν). No article, but made definite by the genitive. Christ crucified is God's answer to both Jew and Greek and the answer is understood by those with open minds.
