Contextual Overview

1 Doth not wysdome crye? doth not vnderstanding put foorth her voyce? 2 She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the place of the pathes: 3 She cryeth at the gates of the citie, at the entrye of the doores: 4 It is you O ye men [saith she] whom I call, vnto the chyldren of men do I lyft vp my voyce. 5 Take heede vnto knowledge O ye ignoraunt, be ye wise in heart O ye fooles. 6 Geue eare, for I wyll speake of great matters, and open my lippes to tell thinges that be right: 7 For my mouth shall be talking of the trueth, and my lippes abhorre vngodlynesse. 8 All the wordes of my mouth are righteous, there is no frowardnes nor falsehood in them. 9 They are all playne to suche as wyll vnderstande, and right to them that finde knowledge. 10 Receaue my doctrine and not siluer, and knowledge rather then fine golde:

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For wisdom [is] better than rubies,.... A sort of precious stones: or, "than precious stones" z in general; so the Targum and Septuagint, Arabic and Syriac versions; even than all of them, as the Vulgate Latin version; or, than "pearls" a, or "carbuncles" b: there are none equal to it, nor is it to be procured by them; see

Job 28:16;

and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it;

Job 28:16- :.

z מפנינים "gemmis", Baynus; "prae gemmis politis", Schultens. a "Margaritas", Pagninus, Montanus, Tigurine version, Mercerus, Gejerus, Michaelis; "unionibus", Cocceius. b "Carbunculis", Junius & Tremellius, Piscator.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Proverbs 8:11. Wisdom is better than rubies — See on Proverbs 3:15.
