The search for wisdom has been a constant in mankind’s history. It is in almost every one of our religious texts and many of our stories, and it is a running question throughout Job. Job does not know why he is suffering. His friends do not know why he is suffering. And everyone wants an answer. Job’s encroaching cynicism has led him to dwell on questioning the source of wisdom and he rightly concludes that it is found in God. Job proclaims that fear of the Lord is wisdom. When we “fear” the Lord as Job says, we rightly revere and honor a God who embodies all wisdom. God Himself is wisdom, and knowing Him means we can know wisdom.
