 9 I       |           is bidden "read" to the wise and hoary-headed elders
10 I       |           as without the rich and wise truth concerning God they

12 II      |         or one tittle shall in no wise pass away from the law,
13 IV      |            but sometimes also its wise ones.144For we see what
14 IV      |            not that it has no one wise after the flesh, but not
15 IV      |           the flesh, but not many wise after the flesh. Nay more,
16 IV      |           assent, but also to the wise; for he was by God made
17 VI(174) |           R.V., "The words of the wise are as goads, and as nails
18 VI      |          Scriptures, words of the wise, are as goads, and as nails
19 VI      |           a man who happens to be wise in word and deed, and on

22 XII     |         is to say, by wise Moses, wise Joshua, the wise and holy
23 XII     |           Moses, wise Joshua, the wise and holy Prophets. Let us
24 XIII    |         but when he ran away from wise Solomon and went down into
25 XIV     |            5. Well, then, let the wise men of old be explained
26 XIV     |       Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and
27 XIV     |            Wherefore, because the wise and learned Greeks err in
28 XIV     |        put to shame them that are wise; and the base things of
29 XIV     |           before God." 254But our wise men, Moses the most ancient
30 XIV     |         and its purpose sound and wise, and it has been taught
31 XIV     |         in the Hebrew, and with a wise regard to the possibilities
32 XIV     |    consider whether Plato and the wise men of the Greeks do not
33 XVII    |          of which arc used by the wise men of Egypt, or by the
34 XVII    |  wonderful stories told us by the wise men whom Celsus approves,
35 XVII    |           sent down such and such wise men, with whose names the
36 XVIII   |           life; moreover, that no wise or educated man has become
37 XVIII   |          their religion, they are wise; but if a man, assenting
38 XVIII   |         said about the Egyptians, wise and ignorant, holds good,
39 XVIII   |           man thinketh that he is wise among you in this world,
40 XVIII   |      become a fool that he may be wise. For the wisdom of this
41 XVIII   |           you thinketh that he is wise, let him become a fool absolutely,"
42 XVIII   |         world, that he may become wise." Well, then, by "the wisdom
43 XVIII   |  respecting the statement that no wise or educated man has been
44 XVIII   |      educated person come, no one wise, no one prudent; for education,
45 XVIII   |           the Word means us to be wise, we may prove even from
46 XVIII   |        find the book full of many wise doctrines. And Solomon,
47 XVIII   |            Solomon was in fact so wise that "the Queen of Sheba
48 XVIII   |         Word that there should be wise men among believers, that
49 XVIII   |          words, exclaims, "Who is wise, and he shall understand
50 XVIII   |        learning cultivated by the wise men about the King of Babylon,
51 XVIII   |          on Him that He will send wise men and scribes, saying, "
52 XVIII   |           Behold, I send unto you wise men and scribes: and some
53 XVIII   |         of the Egyptians, and the wise men, and the sorcerers;362
54 XVIII   |        the Word does not want the wise. If any one so thinks, let
55 XVIII   |        and says that they are not wise in things spiritual, invisible,
56 XVIII   |         them all in all, they are wise men of the world: so also,
57 XVIII   |        truth, speaking of certain wise men of the Greeks and the
58 XVIII   |       brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not
59 XVIII   |        put to shame them that are wise; and God chose the base
60 XVIII   |          that no one educated, or wise, or prudent embraces the
61 XVIII   |       that the words are not, "No wise man after the flesh," but "
62 XVIII   |         the flesh," but "Not many wise men after the flesh." And
63 XVIII   |         one educated come, no one wise, no one prudent." By all
64 XVIII   |           means let any educated, wise, or prudent man come if
65 XVIII   |           and both to be and seem wise? How does this hinder a
66 XVIII   |          virtue; but not even the wise men of Greece will tell
67 XVIII   |       they are more ignorant than wise. Further, who would not
68 XVIII   |          it is a good thing to be wise, though not, as Celsus says,
69 XVIII   |     Greeks and Barbarians, to the wise and to the foolish; 377for
70 XVIII   |        put to shame them that are wise; 384and, speaking generally,
71 XVIII   |    generally, he calls all those "wise" who seem to be proficient
72 XVIII   |       Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and
73 XX      |          creature. And one of our wise men somewhere says, "Say
74 XX      |         it follow that eagles are wise, or wiser than men, who
75 XX      |          but they are exceedingly wise: the ants are a people not
76 XX      |           that are wiser than the wise, but the ants proverbially
77 XX      |      maintain that only the truly wise and the sincerely godly
78 XX      |        tells such stories, and no wise man says that the assemblies
79 XXI     |           shall be likened unto a wise man, which built his house
