Wisdom is commonly defined as good judgment
In the Bible, it also has a strong ethical content
Example
The Lord abhors dishonest scales, but accurate weights are his delights - Proverbs 11:1
Honest is the best policy in business
Biblical wisdom always factors God into the equation
Society might cut corners just enough so it won't hurt business
The person who fears the Lord strives to be honest all the time
God-fearing more concerned about pleasing God than what is good for business
Honesty is the best policy but its wisdom has the wrong foundation.
It is essentially self-serving
Example
Better a little with the fear of the Lord than great wealth with turmoil - Proverbs 15:16-17
This kind of wisdom can only come from the Lord
All levels of our society base their supposed happiness on their ability to acquire the possession they want Key Phrase:Biblical wisdom always factors God into the equation
