| Do you see Jesus in the background? |
In Proverbs, chapter 8 wisdom is personified as a person, specifically a young woman. This young woman is crying out to those around to come to her and be taken care of. It is a beautiful picture, however, it is more than you may realize. I never saw it until a pastor pointed it out in a message. The picture is that of Christ.
If you change out the word wisdom with Jesus and her with his, you will see that Jesus fills this chapter. Jesus gives wisdom. Jesus speaks truth. Jesus stands against the proud and haughty. By Jesus were the foundations of the earth established. Last but not least, Jesus offers salvation and to reject Him means you are doing yourself harm.
Read this chapter again and see for yourself. Jesus is Wisdom.
