Proverbs 7–9

Common Theme

The two voices of wisdom and folly call out to the simple, each offering a path—one leads to life, the other to death. Wisdom is not hidden; she is public, accessible, and rooted in the fear of the Lord.

Questions

• What makes the call of folly so seductive even when the consequences are destructive?
• How does Proverbs 8 deepen your understanding of wisdom as more than moral skill—perhaps even as a person?

God Shot

God delights in wisdom because it reflects His own nature—holy, pure, and eternal. In Proverbs 8, wisdom speaks as one who was with God before creation, revealing that God is not only wise but has always acted with foresight, beauty, and joy in all He does.
