Proverbs 8:1

VIII.

(n). Fourteenth Discourse: — The Praise of Wisdom (Proverbs 8)

(1) Doth not wisdom cry? — See above on Proverbs 1:20. In contrast with the secret allurements of Vice under the cover of night, is here represented the open invitation of Wisdom. (Comp. John 18:20 : “I spake openly to the world... and in secret have I said nothing.”)
