Proverbs
In Proverbs 1:7, “the fear of the LORD” is presented as the starting point for real knowledge. The verse contrasts this foundation with “fools” who despise wisdom and instruction. It functions as a headline principle for how Proverbs frames wisdom.
7The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of knowledge; But the foolish despise wisdom and instruction.
