Wisdom was revered as a principal virtue among the Jews. Unfortunately, our society has replaced wisdom with a milieu of lesser virtues, namely success or wealth. Job's friends got a lot wrong, but the youngest, Elihu was right when he said, "Great men are not always wise..." (Job 32:9) We have confused greatness with wisdom and to our own detriment. We must reclaim wisdom and place her upon her rightful pillar at the top of our society. To do this, we must first explore what wisdom is and isn't and how one is to acquire it.
