CHAPTER 3WISDOM AS THE GUIDE OF CONDUCT"To deliver thee from the way of the evil man…To deliver thee from the strange woman."- Proverbs 2:12-16WISDOM is concerned, as we have seen, with the whole universe of fact, with the whole range of thought; she surveys and orders all processes of nature. We might say of her,"She doth preserve the stars from wrong, And the most ancient heavens by her are fresh and strong."But while she is occupied in these high things, she is no less attentive to the... read more
