Proverbs 24:3-5
New American Standard Bible 19953 By wisdom a house is built,
And by understanding it is established;
4 And by knowledge the rooms are filled
With all precious and pleasant riches.5 A wise man is [a]strong,
And a man of knowledge [b]increases power.
Proverbs 24:3-5
English Standard Version3 By wisdom a house is built,
and by understanding it is established;
4 by knowledge the rooms are filled
with all precious and pleasant riches.
5 A wise man is full of strength,
and a man of knowledge enhances his might,
( from reference: https://www.gotquestions.org/wisdom-knowledge.html )
“The dictionary defines wisdom as “the ability to discern or judge
what is true, right, or lasting.” Knowledge, on the other hand, is
“information gained through experience, reasoning, or acquaintance.”
Knowledge can exist without wisdom, but not the other way around. One
can be knowledgeable without being wise. Knowledge is knowing how to
use a gun; wisdom is knowing when to use it and when to keep it
holstered.”
( from reference: https://www.gotquestions.org/wisdom-knowledge.html )
The gotquestions.org website has an interesting explanation on the distinctions between knowledge and wisdom.
However, In light of the gotquestions.org website’s explanation, I’m trying to get a deeper understanding of Proverbs 24:3-5 bible verses.
I am Not really impressed by all the commentary explanations in Proverbs 24:3-5
https://biblehub.com/commentaries/proverbs/24-3.htm
Could someone please give an elaborate explanation as to how Wisdom,
knowledge & understanding are different and/or overlap in Proverbs
24:3-5?
