Proverbs 9:4 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 9:4
Whoever is simple, let him turn in here. Wisdom addresses the simple/naive. The Hebrew 'pethiy' (simple/naive) describes the gullible, unformed, undecided. Wisdom doesn't require sophisticated brilliance but welcomes the simple. Those who know they lack wisdom can come and receive. The prerequisite isn't intelligence but humility - recognizing need and responding to invitation.
