    Psalms 14:1 and Psalm 53:1

    (To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.)

    The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

    Gary,

    The Bible speaks of God being both eternal and everlasting ( Psalm 90:2, Genesis 21:33, Deuteronomy 33:27) just to name a few.

    In order to understand God being both eternal and everlasting, we would have to conclude that God has no beginning and no end.

    If we ask who created God, then we would then have to ask who created the person that created God, and it would never ever end. So, if it never ends, it can only be logical that God has no creator but has always been in existence.

    Wisdom is personified as a woman in Proverbs 1:20-21; 2:2-4; 3:14-18; 4:7-8; 8:1-36 and 9:1-12. Each time wisdom speaks. The first time wisdom speaks is in Proverbs 1:20-21.

    Wisdom shouts in the street,

    She lifts her voice in the square;

    At the head of the noisy streets she cries out;

    At the entrance of the gates in the city she utters her sayings: Proverbs 1:20-21 (NASB)

    The Hebrew word for wisdom is hakmot and this noun is a feminine plural. A literal reading would seem to be "Wisdom shouts in the street," except that the second line is in the singular - "she lifts her voice." F. C. Cook writes,

    In the Hebrew the noun is a feminine plural . . . as though this Wisdom were the queen of all wisdoms, uniting in herself all their excellences.[1]

    That is, since Proverbs 2:6 says that God gives wisdom, the wisdom in Proverbs is the queen of all wisdoms. There is no greater wisdom.

    comment: I don't think proverbs 31 means wisdom is a heavenly female creature. My opinion. It is the way Solomon (had 900 wives;300 concubines) described wisdom. Possibly Jewish literature would address this?

    I don't know.
  • Rick - In Reply on Ecclesiasticus 1 - 2 years ago
    Hello Betty In James 3:13-17 gives a good summary of wisdom verse 17[correct application of information given] from

    above and from below 14-16[incorrection usage of knowledge]. The word she biblically is at times used of the item

    itself, I think of a man that loves something that's worked well i.e. car, tool etc. Wisdom she is worth great treasure to

    those who love her and apply. It is very interesting that in nerse 17 there are eight manifested or shown in someones walk of Gods wisdom and 8 biblically signifies spiritual perfection. These are trsaits in people who endeavor to walk

    in Christ Jesus via the spirit.

    God Bless
  • Amarin - In Reply on Ecclesiasticus 1 - 2 years ago
    Good question. Would someone with a very deep understanding of Biblical Hebrew and of the ancient Bible word usage to explain whether Wisdom is really feminine or whether the noun "Wisdom" is traditionally used as feminine for grammar inflection to show gender (and what does that mean).
  • Betty Harrison on Ecclesiasticus 1 - 2 years ago
    What is wisdom that it is referred to as a female, her or she? What is the connection between God and wisdom?
  • CHINENYE GIDEON on Ecclesiasticus 1 - 3 years ago

  • Adam - In Reply on Ecclesiasticus 1 - 3 years ago
    Hello, just search online for a Bible containing the "apocrypha" or get it separately. Note that many do not consider it canon, or God's word for different reasons. Link

  • Bob Grove on Ecclesiasticus 1:1 - 4 years ago
    I'd love to see these books of the Apocrypha put back into the KJV where they belong and where there for over 250 yrs . If you have not read them I highly recommend it .

    Is there anyone doing this in print ? There is no copy write on the KJV so someone do some people a huge favor and get those printing presses going !
  • Bob Grove on Ecclesiasticus 1 - 4 years ago
    What a fabulous book of practical wisdom ! I wish I read this years ago , it should be in the KJV where it belongs !
  • Abimael - In Reply on Ecclesiasticus 1 - 4 years ago
    Jesus wrote this gospel, Jesus son of Sirach. This gospel is a minor gospel plus this is the 2nd cousin of our savior and god Christ, Jesus Christ.
  • Wilhelmenia Kirnon on Ecclesiasticus 1 - 4 years ago
    Who wrote this book? Why is it not in all Bibles? Why was it not added. Who decides what goes in the Bibles as we know them?
  • Khadiyah Yisra'EL Ramsey - In Reply on Ecclesiasticus 1 - 4 years ago
    Hi there Betty, There are about 12 people named Jesus in the Bible. The one spoken of here is not the Messiah
  • I Am that Michael Isaac Dale on Ecclesiasticus 1 - 5 years ago
    Nay. Verily, ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God. Yet, for this very cause it is so written, Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
  • Betty on Ecclesiasticus 1 - 5 years ago
    This has to be talking about some other man named Jesus and not Jesus Christ, because Jesus died on the cross and rose again on the third day. He was God in human form who came down as a man, a perfect man there was no sin in him. Jesus came for one purpose and that was to be the supreme sacrafice. Jesus did not marry, nor did he have children, so there is no way he could have had grandchildren.
