I'm not sure that I've ever seen that, in any religious education curriculum description. Or in any college curriculum, for that matter. And yet, that's what I think we hope that our children will come away with. And in our adult religious education, I think that's what we're reaching for, a lot of the time. In the Old Testament, especially in Proverbs, wisdom isn't something abstract.
Wisdom is a person.
I want to hear some cheers from some of you out there. Wisdom is a woman, who stands by the way, and calls out to everyone who passes by. Wisdom is life, and prosperity. Wisdom is righteousness, and truth, and justice. The Lord created me as the beginning of his work.
