Contextual Overview

1 My sonne, if thou wylt receaue my wordes, and lay vp my commaundementes within thee, 2 That thou wylt encline thine eares vnto wisdome: applye thine heart then to vnderstandyng. 3 For if thou cryest after wisdome, and cryest for knowledge: 4 If thou seekest for her as for siluer, and searchest for her as for treasures: 5 Then shalt thou vnderstand the feare of the Lorde, and finde the knowledge of God. 6 For the Lorde geueth wisdome, out of his mouth commeth knowledge and vnderstandyng. 7 He stirreth vp health for the righteous: and defendeth them that walke vprightly, 8 That they may kepe the right path: and he preserueth the way of such as do serue him with godlinesse. 9 Then shalt thou vnderstande righteousnesse, and iudgement, and equitie, yea and euery good path.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

So that thou incline thine ear unto Wisdom,.... Hearken to Wisdom, that is, Christ; or rather to the instruction of Wisdom, which is the Gospel; so called, because it is the produce of divine wisdom, what the wisdom of man could never have devised, and which it opposes; and in which there is a most glorious display of the wisdom of God, in the justification and salvation of his people by Christ, 1 Corinthians 2:6; and is worth listening unto with the greatest attention, which is what is designed by this expression;

[and] apply thine heart to understanding; to a spiritual and experimental understanding of the Gospel, and the truths of it: for an inclination of the ear, without an application of the heart, which signifies the intenseness of the mind, an earnest and hearty desire after knowledge, will signify nothing; a hypocrite may seemingly hear with great attention, and show much affection, and yet his heart be after the world and the things of it, Ezekiel 33:31; see Psalms 119:112.
