Wisdom and the Millers (Rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee

Proverbs 9:8

Do not rebuke a mocker or he will hate you;
rebuke a wise man and he will love you.


Tonight the Miller family were studying the 9th chapter of Proverbs. Dad explained the meaning of wisdom: By knowing what God wants of us and trying to please Him. Dad went on to tell two stories from the Bible. The first one was about Korah, Dathan and Abiram in the book of Numbers. Dad told the children about how Korah, Dathan and Abiham rebelled against Moses and did not listen to his rebuke. The second story was about Aaron and Miriam They also rebelled. However, they admitted their mistake and confessed their sins. Aaron and Miriam were wise but, Korah, Dathan and Abriham were foolish.
