WHAT IS WISDOM?

"For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it." Prov. 8:11.

WHAT IS WISDOM?

Whence then cometh wisdom? And where is the place of understanding? Seeing it is hid from the eyes of all living, And kept close from the fowls of the air. Destruction and Death say, We have heard the fame thereof with our ears. God understandeth the way thereof, And He knoweth the place thereof. For He looketh to the ends of the earth, And seeth under the whole heaven; To make the weight for the winds; And He weigheth the waters by measure. When He made a decree for the rain, And a way for the lightning of the thunder; Then did He see it, and declare it; He prepared it, yea, and searched it out. And unto man He said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom, And to depart from evil is understanding.
"But of Him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption." 1 Cor. 1:30.
