Footnotes
- 17 The verb בִּין (bin, “to perceive; to understand; to discern”) refers to ability to grasp, discern or be sensitive to what it means to fear the Lord.
- 18 Heb “the fear of the Lord.” The noun is an objective genitive; the Lord is to be the object of fear and reverence.
- 19 Heb “find” (so , , , ).
- 20 The term דַּעַת (da’at, “knowledge”) goes beyond cognition; it is often used metonymically (cause) for obedience (effect); see, e.g., Prov 3:6, “in all your ways acknowledge him,” and 395 This means that the disciple will follow God’s moral code; for to know God is to react ethically and spiritually to his will (e.g., J. H. Greenstone, Proverbs, 18).
- 21 Heb “knowledge of God.” The noun is an objective genitive.
