Proverbs 8:31

Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.
– Proverbs 8:31

The creation was capped with the creation of man and that is the climax of wisdom’s recounted role. Wisdom is depicted as rejoicing and having delights with the world of men. This answers back to the earlier descriptions of wisdom calling out to men from all accessible places in the habitable parts. Wisdom is willing and generous and wanting to impart wisdom to all those who love and seek her.
