Summary
And so the Lord, we read in first kings that at Gibby in the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night, and God said, ask what I should give you, and Solomon says that he asks for God to give you servant and understanding mind to govern your people, able to discern between good and evil. Solomon saw after wisdom from the Lord to be able to govern as king, govern with discernment and good and wise judgment. Looking at verse 2 for learning about wisdom and instruction, for understanding words of insight, for gaining instruction, and insight in the world. Look with me please again at verse 3, for gaining instruction in wise dealing, righteousness, justice, and equity, to teach shroudness to the simple knowledge and prudence to the young, wise dealing, righteousness, justice, equity, shroudness. Seeking out righteousness and justice in the world is often found by being good and proving oneself to be a good person amongst the others because we figure that if we are right with the world, we are right with others. The learning about wisdom and instruction for understanding words of insight, for gaining instruction in wise dealing, righteousness, justice and equity, to teach trueness to the simple knowledge and prudence to the young, let the wise also hear and gain in learning, and the discerning acquire skill to understand a proverb and a figure, the words of the wise and their riddles.
