Thematic Bible: What is understanding
Thematic Bible
Understanding » What is understanding
And to man He said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom! And to depart from evil is understanding!
The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom; and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
I, wisdom, dwell with sense, and find out knowledge of discretions. The fear of Jehovah is to hate evil; I hate pride, and arrogance, and the evil way, and the wicked mouth. Counsel and sound wisdom are mine; I am understanding; I have strength.
Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as Jehovah my God commanded me, so that you should do so in the land where you go to possess it. And you shall keep and do them, for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.
