The Fear of the Lord Is the Beginning of Knowledge

The fear of the lord is the beginning of knowledge. Fools despise wisdom and instruction. The scriptures are inspired, they come forth from the mind and mouth of god. If i do this, i'll always be rich and i'll always prosper. That's not what is intended here. A lot of times people will take a a promise in the book of proverbs and say, you know, if i do this and this and this,  i'll never be sick. What is intended is that there are general principles of life that can be recognized if you just study them.
