Provérbios 24:3 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 24:3

Through wisdom is a house builded
A family is built up, furnished and supplied with the necessaries and conveniences of life, and brought into flourishing and prosperous circumstances, by wise and prudent management, by diligence and industry, through the blessing of God upon them, without taking such methods as evil men do. The house of God, the church of the living God, is built by Wisdom, that is, by Christ; on a good foundation, a rock, upon himself, against which the gates of hell can never prevail; see ( Proverbs 9:1 ) . Every good man's house, himself, his soul, and the eternal salvation of it, are built on the same; and he is a wise man that builds his house through wisdom; that builds on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, the one and only foundation which God has laid, which is Jesus Christ; and by understanding it is established;
the prosperity of a man's family is continued and secured by his prudent conduct. The church of God is established by Christ, who is understanding as well as wisdom; see ( Proverbs 8:14 ) ( Psalms 87:5 ) ; and every true believer is established in Christ, and in the faith of him; and that as he has more and more an understanding of him and of divine things.

Provérbios 24:3 In-Context

1 Não tenhas inveja dos homens malignos; nem desejes estar com eles;
2 porque o seu coração medita a violência; e os seus lábios falam maliciosamente.
3 Com a sabedoria se edifica a casa, e com o entendimento ela se estabelece;
4 e pelo conhecimento se encherão as câmaras de todas as riquezas preciosas e deleitáveis.
5 O sábio é mais poderoso do que o forte; e o inteligente do que o que possui a força.
