What does Proverbs 1:1-7 mean? Commentary, explanation and study verse by verse.
The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;
To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;
To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;a
To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.b
A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:
To understand a proverb, and the interpretation;c the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.
The fear of the LORD is the beginningd of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
