Abstract
“The sense of life, the sense of things: it is of these that Wisdom speaks.”
Wisdom has built her house;
she has set up her seven pillars.
She has prepared her meat and mixed her wine;
she has also set her table.
She has sent out her servants, and she calls
from the highest point of the city,
“Let all who are simple come to my house!”
To those who have no sense she says,
“Come, eat my food
and drink the wine I have mixed.
Leave your simple ways and you will live;
walk in the way of insight.”
(Proverbs 9: 1–6)
