The principle of wisdom

The great principle of wisdom is the fear of Jehovah.

¿What is wisdom?

Wisdom is a quality attributed to those who possess a large amount of knowledge and is distinguished by using them with prudence and wisdom.
A very wise man in the Bible was King Solomon, this man in the midst of his human condition asked God for the greatest wealth that could exist, asked for wisdom to govern his people, wise decision.

And if any of you lacks wisdom, ask God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to you. James 1: 5

It is better to acquire wisdom than precious gold;
And acquiring intelligence is more valuable than silver. Proverbs 16:16

Wisdom fills you with great knowledge, this helps you to search beyond human intelligence, those who act with this principle are concerned about doing the appropriate works.

God is the primordial source of all wisdom, and she teaches us to obey her eternal commandments. Besides, God is omniscient, everything knows, and only in Him are all the mysteries of wisdom.

The wisdom was before the creation in these biblical passages we can observe this information. Proverbs 8: 22-31

Jehovah possessed me at the beginning, before his works. Eternally I had the principality, from the beginning,
Before Earth. Before the depths I was begotten;
When there were no fountains full of water.
Before the mountains formed,
Before the hills, he was already begotten; He had not yet made the earth, nor the fields,
It was not the beginning of the world.
When he made the heavens, there I was;
By tracing the circle in the face of the abyss;
When he affirmed the heavens above,
When he affirmed the sources of the abyss;
When he put the statute to the sea,
So that the waters did not transcend his commandment;
When I laid the foundations of the earth,
With him he was ordering everything,
And it was his daily delight,
Have comfort in front of him at all times.
I rejoice in the habitable part of your land;
And my delights are with the children of men.

An example of the wisdom realized by King Solomon was when two women fought over a child, since both had given birth almost at the same time, that dispute came before King Solomon.

This information had arrived in this way, one of the mothers killed her son, but she, seeing herself without her son and for this reason having lost this wonderful stage of being a mother, insists that the child be eliminated from the other mother and so she have it.

Seeing this dispute many were waiting with great attention as the king would justly resolve this decision.
The determined king tells one of his guards to take his sword to divide the boy for whom these two women were fighting, a decision that made the guard hesitate, but he obeyed his king, and slowly took off his sword, and arrived where one of the women, who held the baby, the real mother of the child, prostrated before the king, to ask him not to kill the child, while the other woman said yes, neither for you nor for me, this act, I determine the decision of wisdom, of the king, understanding that the true mother, was the one who asked for clemency for the life of the child.

This king was full of wisdom and as these disputes also resolved many, the people were amazed with the wisdom that this man possessed of Jehovah.
