Wisdom in the Bible

Celestin Tomić

Sažetak

Following a general introduction to Wisdom literature and its significance in the ancient East, the author discusses the significance of such literature in Israel. Wisdom was the key to understanding the basic dimensions of Biblical messages: the relation between belief and life. Wisdom is afforded divine properties. The redeeming importance of Wisdom is emphasized. In this sense, Jesus is a teacher of Wisdom and a sage: the embodiment of Wisdom. Today, when the danger of the Gnostic misuse of Wisdom has passed, the author suggests that it would again be worthwhile to attach greater weight to this dimension in theology and in the evangelization of the world.
