ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
What does it mean to “sin against wisdom”?
In Proverbs 8:35–36, Solomon says that whoever finds wisdom finds life, but whoever sins against wisdom injures himself. Dr. E explains what that means and why biblical wisdom is something we cannot afford to miss.
The conversation also takes a closer look at Proverbs 31. Rather than presenting an impossible standard for women, Proverbs 31 gives us a picture of what a life shaped by wisdom looks like.
And what does wisdom ultimately teach us about the future?
We can smile at the future because we know who is in control.
