Lanolin, you are confusing wisdom with knowledge. Wisdom only comes from God to those who deserve it. Knowledge on the other hand is freely available to everyone though not everyone knows what to do with it. That's where wisdom comes into play. For example, knowing the price of rubies is knowledge. Disciplining oneself against coveting what one can't have is wisdom.
 
Wisdom is the application of knowledge......

A senseless man does not know, and a fool does not understand
 
no Im not.
I just shared what the price of rubies was to OP since he asked.
look up proverbs..wisdoms price is far ABOVE rubies. so obviously its way above that or even priceless.
 
OP likes to measure things in concrete terms as you might find out.
But not all the Bible can be measured. John said of all the words said about Jesus, if all the books were written the world could not contain them.

which is very true which is why we have internet. I work in libraries and even with the vast amount of archived information in books we cant contain all the words and prayers ever uttered about Jesus and all the good things He has done for us. The thing about words thougn if we DO write them down they wont be forgotten after they've been said.

which is why God preserves the words of scripture so we can read it even thousands of years later. remmeber they are holy spirit inspired...its not just some random person going I think God said this.
