I agree with Eric Just yesterday I had a conversation with someone who mistakenly thinks this chapter refers to Mary the mother of Jesus Very unfortunate Especially the person took verse 18 out of context This chapter is a personification of Wisdom analogous to Proverbs 8 9 It makes no reference to Mary Here are some verses of especial importance in this chapter 24 that may help to resolve confusion in regard to false claims of reference to Mary in this chapter 1 5 9 19 24 25 29 Unfortunately the printing on this webpage does not include quotation marks to mark the boundaries of Wisdom s speech Wisdom personified begins speaking in the 1st person at verse 3 above Wisdom personified breaks from speaking at verse 22 where the narrator resumes in verse 23
