    why did the book of proverbs chapter 1 verse 20-21 regard wisdom as "she"?

    If you search your Bible dictionaries for Wisdom or Shekinah you should find what you are looking for.

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
