4 Maccabees 1:16

16 Wisdom, next, is the knowledge of divine and human matters and the causes of these.

4 Maccabees 1:16 In-Context

14 We shall decide just what reason is and what emotion is, how many kinds of emotions there are, and whether reason rules over all these.

15 Now reason is the mind that with sound logic prefers the life of wisdom.

16 Wisdom, next, is the knowledge of divine and human matters and the causes of these.

17 This, in turn, is education in the law, by which we learn divine matters reverently and human affairs to our advantage.

18 Now the kinds of wisdom are rational judgment, justice, courage, and self-control.
