Wisdom and Fools

Proverbs 1:7-9
'The fear of the Lord is the begginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction against the enticement of sinners. My son hear the instruction of thy father, and forske not the law of your mother. For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head and chains about thy neck.'
The Bible has quite a few verses on fools and how they,
'Despise wisdom and instruction.'
We have been reading Proverbs in our family Bibletime, and we read quite a few verses about wisdom and instruction.
'To know wisdom and instruction , to perceive the words of understanding.'
Proverbs 1:2
And Proverbs 1:5 says, (I will be quoting quite a bit of scripture)
'A wise man will hear and increase learning, and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels.'
Also, as Proverbs 3:53 says,
'Wise inherit honor, but fools, he holds up to shame.'
and Proverbs 10:14,
Wisemen store up knowledg, but the mouth of a fool invites ruin.'
Read Proverbs sometime, you will find alot of verses about 'wisdom and fools'.
