Here is a Scripture that spells out earthly and Godly wisdom: James 3:14-17 But if you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth. This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic. For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing will be there. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.

Solomon asked for God wisdom. Man wisdomtends to be very short sighted; whereas God's wisdom is truth.

Human wisdom is secular only.
God given wisdom is truth. It can deal with secular things, or afterlife etc. God given wisdom is the power to look beyond your own flesh, and things you can touch, taste, feel , and put into your body. Ya know, the thing that drops dead one day.
With love through Christ Jesus,

God for sure....
Remember, Solomon prayed for wisdom....and God rewarded his prayer 10-fold.
So it comes from God
