WISDOM:

Print (Will open in a new window)

Proverbs 8 speaks of God’s wisdom in creating the earth and of Jesus who was with Him before and while creating the earth and the heavens and all in it and on it.

1 Corinthians 1: 30 speaks of Christ as Wisdom from God made to us as righteousness, holiness and redemption.

Wisdom is not a person but can be held by a person.

Wisdom is neuter and so in Proverbs 9 when Wisdom is spoken of as She, it is not speaking of a person, but just as a ship can be called ‘She’, it isn’t so much the gender but a manner to identify Wisdom by pronoun, another name, but not of a Person.
