The fear of the Lord signifies a profound respect and reverence for God, rather than literal fear. This respect forms the foundation of wisdom, as it leads us to acknowledge our dependence on God and our need for His guidance. Fools, who despise wisdom and instruction, live without this reverence and, consequently, without true wisdom. They rely on their own understanding, which often results in poor decisions and negative outcomes. True wisdom stems from a sincere relationship with God and a heart willing to learn and grow spiritually. Through humility and the constant seeking of divine guidance, we can develop a life filled with purpose and understanding.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.
