And if a man love righteousness, her labours are virtues: for she teacheth temperance and prudence, justice and fortitude: which are such things, as men can have nothing more profitable in their life.

All Commentaries on Wisdom of Solomon 8:7 Go To Wisdom of Solomon 8

Ambrose of Milan

AD 397

Wisdom does not live with vice in any way but unites without conflict with the other virtues. Her spirit is intelligent, without blemish, trustworthy, holy, loving of the good, acute, not opposed to any good, beneficent, stable, sure, possessing all virtues and seeing all. And then, "She teaches temperance and prudence, justice and fortitude."
