Strengthen your faith in God's word

A moral rather than an intellectual quality. To be “foolish” is to be godless (Ps 14:1; comp. Judg 19:23; 2 Sam 13:13). True wisdom is a gift from God to those who ask it (Job 28:12–28; Prov 3:13–18; Rom 1:22; Rom 16:27; 1 Cor 1:17–21; 1 Cor 2:6–8; Jas 1:5). “Wisdom” in Prov 1:20; Prov 8:1; Prov 9:1–5 may be regarded not as a mere personification of the attribute of wisdom, but as a divine person, “Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God” (1 Cor 1:24). In Matt 11:19 it is the personified principle of wisdom that is meant.
