SEV Biblia, Chapter 30:3

Yo ni aprendí sabiduría, ni conozco la teología.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Proverbs 30:3

Verse 3. I neither
learned wisdom ] I have never been a scholar in any of those schools of the wise men, nor have the knowledge of the holy, µyŤdq kedoshim, of the saints or holy persons.

The Septuagint give this a different turn: yeov dedidace me sofian, kai gnwsin agiwn egnwka; "God hath taught me wisdom, and the knowledge of the saints I have known." This may refer to the patriarchs, prophets, or holy men, that lived before the days of Solomon. That is, the translators might have had these in view.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 3. I neither learned wisdom , etc.] Natural wisdom or philosophy, so as to understand the nature of things, and reason about them in a philosophical manner; or political wisdom, so as to know how to govern states, and manage the affairs of kingdoms; or in a lower sphere to transact the affairs of life to any peculiar advantage; he had not a polite or liberal education: or spiritual and evangelical wisdom; that is, not of himself through the mere strength and force of his genius and natural capacity, or of others; he was not the son of a prophet, nor brought up in the schools of the prophets; he did not learn it, nor was he taught it by men; for this is not acquired by human teaching; it is what comes from above, from heaven, and by the revelation of God; nor have the knowledge of the holy ; or “holies” f838 ; either of holy persons, such knowledge as holy men of God had; or of the holy angels, not of their nature, capacities, influence and operations; nor such as they have: or rather of the holy Persons in the Trinity, Father, Son and Spirit; their nature modes of subsisting, perfections, purposes, and the like; at least not a full and comprehensive one: or of holy things, of the holy Scriptures, and the holy doctrines of them; however, not what is perfect and complete. It may be rendered, “but I have the knowledge of the holy” f839 , though he had not the advantage of human literature, nor had ever been under the instructions of men on one account or another, and therefore what he knew, or was about to discourse of, was from God. Some understand this verse and ( Proverbs 30:2) of Ithiel, or Christ f840 , as in the esteem of men, ( 1 Corinthians 1:23 John 7:15).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-6 - Agur speaks of himself as wanting a
righteousness, and having done very foolishly. And it becomes us all to have low thoughts of ourselves. He speaks of himself as wanting revelation to guide him in the ways of truth and wisdom. The more enlightened people are, the more they lamen their ignorance; the more they pray for clearer, still cleare discoveries of God, and his rich grace in Christ Jesus. In very.#(4) there is a prophetic notice of Him who came down from heaven to be ou Instructor and Saviour, and then ascended into heaven to be ou Advocate. The Messiah is here spoken of as a Person distinct from the Father, but his name as yet secret. The great Redeemer, in the glorie of his providence and grace, cannot be found out to perfection. Had it not been for Christ, the foundations of the earth had sunk under the load of the curse upon the ground, for man's sin. Who, and what is the mighty One that doeth all this? There is not the least ground to suspect anything wanting in the word of God; adding to his words open the way to errors and corruptions.
