Lady Wisdom

The simple take refuge in mockery and levity as a way of deflecting the gravity of truth and wisdom. What Lady wisdom offers to such people is a rebuke, if they will accept this rebuke,. If they respond appropriately she will pour out her spirit like a fountain of truthful words that will bestow life to them. They have rejected her words and so she will mock them when calamity strikes. At that point it will be too late and wisdom won't be anywhere to be found. Their key failure was their hatred of knowledge and their rejection of the fear of the Lord.
