Jeremiah / Question
Question source
Jeremiah
Jeremiah says not to boast in wisdom, might, or riches (Jeremiah 9:23). The saying contrasts those with boasting in understanding and knowing the LORD’s character and actions (Jeremiah 9:24).
23Thus says Yahweh, Don`t let the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, don`t let the rich man glory in his riches;
24but let him who glories glory in this, that he has understanding, and knows me, that I am Yahweh who exercises lovingkindness, justice, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, says Yahweh.
