Clarke's Commentary on the BibleThe Lord possessed me in the beginning of his way - Wisdom is not acquired by the Divine Being; man, and even angels, learn it by slow and progressive degrees; but in God it is as eternally inherent as any other essential attribute of his nature. The Targum makes this wisdom a creature, by thus translating the passage: אלהא בראני בריש בריתיה Elaha barani bereish biriteiah, "God created me in the beginning of his creatures." The Syriac is the same. This is as absurd and heretical as some modern glosses on the same passage. Treasury of Scripture Knowledge Proverbs 3:19 The LORD by wisdom has founded the earth; by understanding has he established the heavens. John 1:1,2 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God... Colossians 1:17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
