FEAR OF THE LORD: WISDOM'S STARTING POINT
May 14, 2023 • JASON GRISSOM
"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction." This three-word phrase emphasizes the importance of a reverent fear of God as the foundation of true knowledge and wisdom. It suggests that without a respectful fear of God, our pursuit of knowledge and understanding will be incomplete and misguided. The phrase also implies that the fear of God leads to a humble and teachable spirit, while the absence of such fear results in foolishness and arrogance.
