Physicians, Tradesmen and Craftsmen

The Lord created medicines from the earth, and a sensible man will not despise them. He gave skill to men that he might be glorified in his marvelous works. By them he heals and takes away pain. So too is the smith sitting by the anvil, intent upon his handiwork and iron. The wisdom of the scribe depends on the opportunity of leisure,. How can he become wise who handles the plow? Who drives oxen and is occupied with their work, and whose talk is about bulls? They are not sought out for counsel; nor do they attain eminence in public assembly. Without them, no city cannot be established or even built.
