Biblical scriptures about knowledge

Answer 1

Psalm 119:66
Teach me knowledge and good judgment, for I believe in your commands.
Proverbs 1:7
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools [ The Hebrew words rendered fool in Proverbs, and often elsewhere in the Old Testament, denote one who is morally deficient. ] despise wisdom and discipline

Proverbs 1:29
Since they hated knowledge and did not choose to fear the LORD
Proverbs 2:6
For the LORD gives wisdom, and from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.

Answer 2

Oh yeah, that can be Proverbs. It starts off with this :

Proverbs1:1 The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel:
2 for attaining wisdom and discipline;
for understanding words of insight;
3 for acquiring a disciplined and prudent life,
doing what is right and just and fair;
4 for giving prudence to the simple,
knowledge and discretion to the young-
5 let the wise listen and add to their learning,
and let the discerning get guidance-
6 for understanding proverbs and parables,
the sayings and riddles of the wise.
7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge,
but fools despise wisdom and discipline.

It starts out as a teacher gives reason for learning. It readily sets the pupil as an onlooker on to things which are to be sought after, and things that are to be avoided. It teaches that the Lord is the basis for reason, and those that are without it are not those who have the most desired wisdom.

Knowledge can be the downfall of an entire society. As we have illusrated in this verse:
Hosea 4:6
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

So those that chose other ways fall away from the kind of knowledge that God wants for his people. As what can be determined even to this day, the knowledge from the Bible never runs out. It is constanly a source of learning,

Answer 3

Psalm 78:1-8:

O my people, hear my teaching;
listen to the words of my mouth.
2 I will open my mouth in parables,
I will utter hidden things, things from of old-

3 what we have heard and known,
what our fathers have told us.

4 We will not hide them from their children;
we will tell the next generation
the praiseworthy deeds of the LORD,
his power, and the wonders he has done.

5 He decreed statutes for Jacob
and established the law in Israel,
which he commanded our forefathers
to teach their children,

6 so the next generation would know them,
even the children yet to be born,
and they in turn would tell their children.

7 Then they would put their trust in God
and would not forget his deeds
but would keep his commands.

8 They would not be like their forefathers—
a stubborn and rebellious generation,
whose hearts were not loyal to God,
whose spirits were not faithful to him.

Answer 4

Deut 6:7
Judges 2:l
there are more purchase a concordance

Answer 5

One of the earliest citations I can think of: Deut. 6:7:
"And you shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up."
This verse is considered a keystone of the liturgy.

Answer 6

"All Scripture is 'God breathed' (given of inspiration of God) and is profitable for teaching, reproof, correction, instruction in righteousness..." (2 Timothy 3:16).

Answer 7

The fear(respect) of God is the beginning of wisdom.

Answer 8

"Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it." (Proverbs 22:6)

Answer 9

Well, I kind'a doubt *that*!
