Daily #BibleStudy Reading 1: The Book of #Proverbs The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel: for gaining wisdom and instruction; for understanding words of insight; for receiving instruction in prudent behavior, doing what is right and just and fair; for giving prudence to those who are simple, knowledge and discretion to the young— let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance— for understanding proverbs and parables, the sayings and riddles of the wise. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction. Living God’s wisdom Notice what this introduction emphasizes: wisdom is about life, about living well. Prudent behavior. Doing justice. Being always open to learning more. Instructing the young. And the beginning of it all, of course, is having a deep respect and awe of the Lord himself. The Creator is the one who knows how to guide us into living well. He is the source of all wisdom.
