“Better Than Gold”
“Better Than Gold”
Blessings folk!
Fruit.
Is there fruit better than gold?
Better than silver?
Pro 8:19
“My fruit is better than gold, even pure gold,
And my yield better than choicest silver.
Who/what is “My”?
Pro 8:12-21
“I, wisdom, dwell with prudence,
And I find knowledge and discretion.
“The fear of the LORD is to hate evil;
Pride and arrogance and the evil way
And the perverted mouth, I hate.
“Counsel is mine and sound wisdom;
I am understanding, power is mine.
“By me kings reign,
And rulers decree justice.
“By me princes rule, and nobles,
All who judge rightly.
“I love those who love me;
And those who diligently seek me will find me.
“Riches and honor are with me,
Enduring wealth and righteousness.
“My fruit is better than gold, even pure gold,
And my yield better than choicest silver.
“I walk in the way of righteousness,
In the midst of the paths of justice,
To endow those who love me with wealth,
That I may fill their treasuries.
“My/I” is wisdom.
