Wisdom of Solomon 7:26
King James VersionSource notes
“For she is the brightness of the everlasting light, the unspotted mirror of the power of God, and the image of his goodness.”
Context
23Kind to man, steadfast, sure, free from care, having all power, overseeing all things, and going through all understanding, pure, and most subtil, spirits.
24For wisdom is more moving than any motion: she passeth and goeth through all things by reason of her pureness.
25For she is the breath of the power of God, and a pure influence flowing from the glory of the Almighty: therefore can no defiled thing fall into her.
26For she is the brightness of the everlasting light, the unspotted mirror of the power of God, and the image of his goodness.
27And being but one, she can do all things: and remaining in herself, she maketh all things new: and in all ages entering into holy souls, she maketh them friends of God, and prophets.
28For God loveth none but him that dwelleth with wisdom.
29For she is more beautiful than the sun, and above all the order of stars: being compared with the light, she is found before it.
