We are reminded once again about wisdom and understanding....
V 10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
Proverbs chapter 9 comparison contrast wisdom and folly. Saying that folly knows nothing and wisdom is supreme, Proverbs chapter 9 offers a comparison and contrast between the two. In His characteristic style of antithetic comparison and contrast, the Lord Loving Me shows his precious children that they are important to him, and that it is best to do His will bye embracing wisdom rather than folly or sin. Though we send for human beings are fleshy by Nature because of sin, and we struggle with sin because of the weakness of our flesh, the wickedness of the world and Temptation from the Devil, we need the Lord's help to deal with sin because of Temptation. As a result, no sinful human being can avoid acknowledgement of their need for God's forgiveness to Jesus death on the cross!
