For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
The speaker is wisdom itself, heavenly wisdom addressing the human family. That voice speaks truth, and treats wickedness as detestable to its lips. Its utterance is wonderful instruction to be prized, setting forth what true wisdom is.
In this the Lord is earnestly seeking to instruct every soul willing to be taught. True faith embraces the whole person and lifts the soul from an imperfect, undeveloped condition to comprehend that true wisdom. Christ puts these words in the mouth of His appointed instructor. They call for a clear testimony to the binding claims of God's law. They show that many things are to be set in order, and call for earnest prayer that the Lord will guide with wisdom.
