Friends, our first reading this Sunday from the book of Wisdom begins, “Resplendent and unfading is wisdom, and she is readily perceived by those who love her, and found by those who seek her.” The Bible is preoccupied with the search for wisdom because Jesus is the Wisdom of God made flesh. But to get there, I want to first move step by step through this passage, which lays out an extraordinary vision of the Wisdom of God—a person who not only is sought by us but also seeks us out.
