An Early Supper

(Proverbs 9:5 KJV)  Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled.

You don’t see it in the NASB but I wonder if this is some sort of Old Testament reference to the Last Supper.   We have “bread” (3899) (food NASB) and “wine” (3196).  Jesus spoke of the bread and the cup.  There is nothing strong enough to be doctrinal here but it could point to the tie of wisdom to salvation.

As we see in verse 10, wisdom begins with fear.  Here it is fed by the nourishment that wisdom provides.  It is another side of our journey of faith.

So?  Fear the Lord and partake of the wisdom that He offers.
