The Excellence of Wisdom

1 Does not awisdom cry out,
And understanding lift up her voice? 
2 She takes her stand on the top of the1 high hill,
Beside the way, where the paths meet. 
3 She cries out by the gates, at the entry of the city,
At the entrance of the doors:
4 “To you, O men, I call,
And my voice is to the sons of men.

Proverbs 8:2-3

The full enumeration of localities points to the publicity and openness of Wisdom' s teaching (see Proverbs 1:20 note), as contrasted with the stealth and secrecy and darkness which shroud the harlot' s enticements Proverbs 7:9.
