Proverbs 3:13-14

“Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding, for the gain from her is better than gain from silver and her profit better than gold.”

Proverbs 3:13-14 ESV

Because proverbs is a book of faith, it is sometimes very counterintuitive. Without faith, the proverb may be impossible to believe: the gain from wisdom is better than the gain from silver and gold?

Only by faith does this make sense. Let that sink in a bit before dismissing it as nonsense. Additionally, look for this same principle to be evident throughout the book of Proverbs. Mark it when you see it.
