2 | FEAR OF THE LORD MEANING | Prov 1:7 | BradK | 95648 | ||
Dear NEWBIBLESTUDENT, Welcome to the Forum! You are correct in your take on the word fear. As Proverbs 1:7 says " The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom". The use of the word "fear' here is really dealing with a reverence or awe due God.( The Amplified really brings this distinction out) As believers we should show reverence and awe toward God as He alone is worthy! The unbeliever should truly FEAR God! Consider Matt. 10:28 "And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell." Speaking The Truth In Love, BradK |
