Commentary on Proverbs 8:34
Blessed is the one who listens to wisdom, watching daily at her gates, waiting at her doorposts. The Hebrew 'ashrey' (blessed/happy), 'shaqad' (watch/wake early), and 'shamar' (watch/keep) describe vigilant attentiveness. Daily watching at gates/doors portrays eager student awaiting teacher, servant awaiting master. Blessing comes to those who prioritize wisdom above all, positioning themselves to receive her first and constantly.
