Proverbs 2 · Grade 4

Searching for Wisdom

Name Date

Read and Think

Chapter 2 is built like an if-then promise. My son, if you will receive my words, and store up my commandments within you. If you call out for discernment, if you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hidden treasures; then you will understand the fear of Yahweh, and find the knowledge of God.

The reason is simple: For Yahweh gives wisdom. Out of his mouth comes knowledge and understanding. He lays up sound wisdom for the upright. He is a shield to those who walk in integrity. Wisdom is not just smart thinking. It is a gift from God that grows as we seek Him.

Wisdom also protects. Discretion will watch over you. Understanding will keep you, to deliver you from the way of evil. It keeps a person from those who walk in the ways of darkness and from those who would lead them away from God. Therefore walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.
