Proverbs 2:6 (NLT)
For the Lord grants wisdom!
From his mouth come knowledge and understanding.
Knowledge, in Hebrew daath, from the word yada, meaning “to know.”
Yada, not as a passing acquaintance, but as an intimate friend. Yada, the way God knows who we are, where we are and what we’re thinking (Psalm 139). From God’s mouth comes yada: to know Him and to know ourselves.
“Let me know you, O you who know me; then shall I know even as I am known. “
Augustine of Hippo (354-430)
