Ephesians 5:17

17 Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is .

Ver. 17. But understanding what ] Drawing your knowledge into practice, asEphesians 5:10; Ephesians 5:10 . For "the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom, and to depart from evil is understanding,"Job 28:28; Job 28:28 : where wisdom (proper to the understanding) is ascribed to the will, because practice should be joined to knowledge. Hence also, Ecclesiastes 10:2 ; "A wise man’s heart is at his right hand," because his heart teacheth his hand to put things in practice.
