The banquet of Wisdom in the bible: "Let all who are simple come to my house!", Proverbs 9:4

in #wisdom3 years ago

The book of Proverbs teaches us the banquet of wisdom, this maxim of wisdom has its correlate with the parable of the great banquet (Matthew 22: 1-14 and Luke 14: 16-24) in the Gospels. The book of proverbs compares wisdom to us with a great party to which we are all invited, because wisdom is joy, happiness, peace, that is, the fullness of spiritual goods in man (Fruits of the spirit, Galatians 5:21-23).
The book of proverbs exalts the perfection of wisdom, with this beautiful text:
"Wisdom has built her house;
she has set up its seven pillars.
She has prepared her meat and mixed her wine;
she has also set her table.
She has sent out her servants, and she calls
from the highest point of the city,
´Let all who are simple come to my house!´
To those who have no sense she says,
´Come eat my food
and drink the wine I have mixed.
Leave your simple ways and you will live;
walk in the way of insight.´", Proverbs 9:1-6
The banquet of Wisdom in the bible. Let all who are simple come to my house. Proverbs 9,4.jpg
Wisdom has built its house, its domain, its government (the kingdom of Heaven) and is based on seven pillars, these are the seven gifts of the holy spirit: mercy, fear of God, continuous improvement, righteousness, discernment, wisdom and understanding.
As wisdom is the most excellent and the most important thing for man, it calls us from the highest point of the city. We can understand this from another perspective, when Jesus tells us about the Kingdom of God he tells us that it is like a lamp that is placed in the highest place, the parable of the lamp (Luke 11:33-36).
And from that point she calls with his servants (the spiritual men), the simple and naive people to rehabilitate them, give true guidance, and free them from oppression and deception and make them similar to God through Gnosis.
Wisdom, the book of proverbs adds to us, is the door to immortality and eternal life. Wisdom gives us that life that once obtained cannot be taken away ("This is eternal life that they know you the only true God", John 17:3), wisdom is also longevity.
For the Bible there is no greater blessing than to be wise as God is wise.
