Despising the Scriptures
Deborah-Leigh:
Hi C
(MKJV) How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! And to get understanding is rather to be chosen than silver!

Heres another proverb i love and that can be applied
Pr 25:2 - It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, But the glory of kings is to search out a matter.
aqrinc:
Ponder this Scripture for a minute while searching for wisdom.
Ecc 1: 17-18 (CLV)
17 Then I applied my heart to know wisdom, As well as to know about raving and frivolity; I realize that even this, it is a grazing on wind."
18 For in much wisdom is much vexation, And he who adds knowledge adds pain."

Hello George
Ecc 1:18 For in much wisdomH2451 { From H2449; wisdom (in a good sense): - skillful, wisdom, wisely, wit. } is much grief:H3708 { From H3707; vexation: - anger, angry, grief, indignation, provocation, provoking, X sore, sorrow, spite, wrath. } and he that increaseth knowledgeH1847 { From H3045; knowledge: - cunning, [ig-] norantly, know(-ledge), [un-] awares (wittingly).} increaseth sorrow.H4341 { From H3510; anguish or (figuratively) affliction: - grief, pain, sorrow. }
Sounds to me like :
Luk 6:22 Blessed are you when men shall hate you, and when they shall cut you off, and when they shall reproach you and shall cast out your name as evil, for the sake of the Son of Man.
Joh 17:14 I have given them Your Word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
Rom 8:7 because the carnal mind is enmity against God, for it is not subject to the Law of God, neither indeed can it be.
Mat 10:22 You will be hated by everyone because of my name. But the person who endures to the end will be saved.

Exactly my thoughts too Arc. Good find, which also sounds like to me Matt 13:45
"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking fine pearls, 46 and upon finding one pearl of great value, he went and sold all that he had and bought it".
