The Woman who calls herself Wisdom and Understanding — Proverbs 1, 3, 8 and 9

A Woman who calls herself Wisdom claims to have been with God before the mountains were settled, rejoicing before Him as an architect at His side. Who is she? Scripture, history and Yona Tree's conclusion, kept distinct.

The idea of the Holy Spirit's motherly nature did not begin with Yona Tree. A guide to the early and later Christian writers cited in Seven Lamps Before the Throne, with notes on who they were and how much weight their words can bear.

Part 12of 16
Wisdom in 2 Esdras and the Book of Wisdom; seven lamps around the Father and seven candlesticks around the Son. Like Mother, like daughter.
Scripture: 2 Esdras 13:55–56Wisdom of Solomon 7:7–9:17
