About this listen

In this meditation on Proverbs 1:2–9, we consider the opening foundation of the entire book of Proverbs and the great theme of true wisdom. Reading from the scriptures and drawing directly from the comments of Harry Ironside, this episode explores wisdom, instruction, understanding, discretion, and the teachable spirit that marks a wise soul.

At the center of these verses stands the searching declaration: “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge.” This passage reminds us that true wisdom is not merely education or intellect, but humble submission to God and His Word. We also consider the danger of self-confidence, the importance of receiving correction, and the beauty of a heart willing to hear and increase learning.

A thoughtful meditation on the pathway of wisdom, the forming of godly character, and the voice of God speaking to the conscience through Proverbs 1.
