What the Fathers say

Proverbs 8:19

Western Saints

Bonaventure

The fruit of wisdom is mentioned in Proverbs: "Her fruit is better than the choicest and the purest gold." Hence this fruit comes from Christ in a threefold manner, because Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Because He is Jesus, from Him comes the fruit of grace; because He is Christ, from Him comes the fruit of righteousness; because He is the Son of God, from Him comes the fruit of wisdom.
