Commentary on Proverbs 8:19
Wisdom's fruit is better than gold, even fine gold; her yield better than choice silver. The Hebrew 'zahav' (gold), 'paz' (refined gold), 'keseph' (silver), and 'nichar' (choice/pure) describe peak material value. Yet wisdom exceeds even these. The 'fruit' and 'yield' metaphors describe productive returns - wisdom invests better than precious metals. What wisdom produces outvalues what wealth can purchase.
