Overflowing Wisdom of God's Spirit
The wisdom traditions emphasize being filled with the spirit of wisdom, as seen in a story from Numbers chapter 11. In the story, when God appoints 70 elders to share Moses' spirit, it overflows onto two extra individuals, demonstrating that God's spirit cannot be contained. This overflowing wisdom of God's spirit allows people to discover and discern God's will for their lives by consulting the wisdom of the torah and living out God's will in ways the torah could not address, as it was given to a specific people at a particular time.
