The divine equivalence that Wisdom personified is described in Provers is a needful precedent as we explore Proverbs chapter 24. Because this sometimes neglected understanding of Wisdom presented in the proverbs text needs to be firmly set in order to get the importance of the instruction given to us. In fact, Wisdom has a qualitative factor associated with God. Furthermore, Wisdom will later in the Scriptures will be revealed as that same qualitative factor associated with the Lord Jesus Christ.

This section of Proverbs (22:17 – chapter 24) is a separate collect titled, "Sayings of the Wise". It is composed of 30 different sayings (22:20) that are structured a little different from the typical one verse style. It usually contains a chunk of verses that read like a discourse similar to chapters 1-9. If these are words of truth and divine related counsels that are to be applied to the innermost part of the person, for the purpose to direct your faith in God… how important is it for us to take in and apply what is about to be instructed?

"A good name" is very important concept to grasp early on in life. It is saddening when children have NOT been instructed that their decisions represent their family and not merely themselves. Not only does poor decisions cause grief to the parents, it brings a shameful quality to the family name. So too, when parents are careless and selfish in their actions without realizing the ripple effect it has on the entirety of the family unit. A good reputation is in the same ballpark as "divine wisdom"

The Apostle Peter says that husbands are dwell with their wife with understanding, and respect as partners in Christ. He also instructs wives to be honoring and walk in submissive behavior towards their husbands leadership, much like Sarah did with Abraham. Now was Sarah perfect? No, but at the end of the day despite her marital struggles, she submitted to Abraham's calling, and at times God used her to help Abraham make the right decisions for the family.

Veres by verse study of Proverbs Chapter 20, in which we come to discover more about the "kingship" passages in Proverbs. SPOILER ALERT.... these verses speak of Christ as the King, with imagery of kings David and Solomon in their time of peace and love for God's people. They were always meant to be a foreshadow of the KING of KINGS, the Christ to be revealed in the unfolding redemptive history of salvation.

Ethical or moral qualities are more important than material possessions. Folly is an ethical concept, fools do things that deny God and bring about actions that are contrary / opposite to Him. To top it off their speech does not reflect the reality of God's divine character. Also keep in mind the term poor can also be translated as "innocence". This is important to help us understand what I want to draw from today's teaching topic, "the poor".

The instructor of wisdom and what he says will be profound and possibly… mysterious. However one must desire WISE speech rather than the foolish speech that brings one harm, death, gossip, bribery, haughtiness, unnecessary arguments, resisting correction, and other antisocial behaviors. Instead, the heart of the prudent acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge. Because when you see a man hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

King David did not manage his household very wisely, rather he seemed more obsessed with the concept of "the house of God". So Solomon learned from observing these mistakes (as one with wisdom would), and gained a spiritual awareness of how a man's household management does hold importance to God.
