This is a really great chapter in Proverbs and in the whole Bible that makes Jesus shine. After three weeks of hearing warning and instruction on how to avoid lady folly, lady wisdom comes back in a very triumphant way and invites us to live in a better way in Jesus. Her invitation is to gain wisdom and find the blessing and favor of God as we place our faith in Christ. In chapter 8 wisdom lists out her virtues and then shows us why she is most qualified to teach us a better way of living in Jesus. The NT writers pick up what Solomon says in chapter 8 and then show us how Jesus is the fulfilment of what lady wisdom has pictured for us. What a great chapter.
