The Fear of the Lord - Proverbs 1:7

Submitted by Bible Baptist Church on Wed, 03/02/2011 - 2:49pm

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Since "the fear of the Lord" is the beginning of knowledge in this verse, and "the beginning of wisdom" in Proverbs 9:10, the devil attacks this concept by redefining fear.

Even many fundamentalists say this fear is merely a respect or reverence, but the English word (and even the Hebrew word for that matter) primarily means being afraid.
