Morning, this is a good question from you and I like it.

wisdom, knowledge and understanding, I will say the three are so important, because we need the three in our life.

If you have knowledge of something without understanding it, the knowledge is a wastes, some people do not apply the knowledge well, because they don't understand it.

For example a student have knowledge of math, but he didn't understand it, he will need someone who understands better than him to explain to him.

Wisdom is a greatest among the three, whatever you are doing, you need apply wisdom in life, some do Wise truly, but if you don't have knowledge and understanding.
The wisdom is also a wastes.

Examples a husband and wife, one can be wise and don't understand the husband or wife and in marriage you must understand your spouse, you must have the knowledge of how to deal with your spouse, so that there won't be fight.

And you must apply wisdom in everything you do.

To me the three is very important, Even in the bible solomon ask God for the three, wisdom, knowledge and understanding.

And in the book of proverbs all through the did not choose one out of the three, he use the three word.

Because he knows we need the three, if you have one or two out of the three, you still need someone to that will help you with the third one.

ok that is a good answer, we need the three, to my point of view you have spoke well ,knowledge is the ability to know something either by purpose or accidentally, you can aquire knowledge in any area at any time, but when we talk about understanding ,let me say this, in ranking they are greater than each other but they can never work without each other,like we are talking about the body in whole and we are asking which is greater among the part of the body,we know that the head is the most important but the head will have problem if any part of the body have problem so what am saying niw is that they are greater and important than each other but they can't really work well without each other.
when we talking about understanding, understanding is the ability to assimilate knowledge, hmmm,you cant call something knowledge or else you know it ,and what you don't understand you can't know it you only have idea or clue, before you can boast of knowing something you have to understand the thing,the reason why we have dull students in our school days is not because they do not have idea or clue of what the teacher is teaching but they don't know it because they find it difficult to take the full details into their memory for applications which is the process of understanding so they can also say they know it.
so we can say KNOWLEDGE is information or a theory and the ability to install it or aquire it is UNDERSTANDING. so this point you should know their level according to my explanation UNDERSTANDING is greater than KNOWLEDGE, so moving forward lets now talk about WISDOM,wisdom is the ability to use the knowledge that you understand in a perfect and upright manner, wisdom guides your decision, you can only be wise base on your decisions,one of the reason why wisdom is the greatest is because sometimes its a matter of life and death it is left to your decision and judgement

understanding ,let me say this, in ranking they are greater than each other but they can never work without each other,like we are talking about the body in whole and we are asking which is greater among the part of the body,we know that the head is the most important but the head will have problem if any part of the body have problem so what am saying niw is that they are greater and important than each other but they can't really work well without each.

Yes, you are right mate, this three things is like body, I agree with you, one will be greater than each others and they need each other have said early in morning.

But to me I think the wisdom is the head of this body, if someone have wisdom he or she will know how to guide he or herself.

And if he or she want to talk, he will apply the wisdom and use knowledge and understand to think and digest it before saying it out.

And if you see notice, solomon the bible as he is using the three, the main one is wisdom like wise David too, he always use wisdom that is why God said his the man after his own heart.

And the is reason is that, david always use the wisdom, whenever he sin to God he will as for forgiveness and he will never commit such offend again.

But to say the truth, the three each other to work perfectly, for your guidance and if someone want to make it life.

The three must be use every time, everybody.

And if you see notice, solomon the bible as he is using the three, the main one is wisdom like wise David too, he always use wisdom that is why God said his the man after his own heart.

yes that is very true wisdom is the greatest of all, we all need to ask for wisdom to decide our journey in life, talking about Solomon he was a very wise man.

one of the places he used wisdom in the bible was when two women came to him fighting for a child,which one has killed her own child and she want to take a living child.

in life situations like that will arise, and so many people fail in judgement like that and different situations which are complicated.

Get wisdom, Wisdom is the principal thing

Nice one and I must say it is good to see that you know it all already,but of all asking questions is a way of building others to grow up.

My dad do say asking questions don't mean you don't know ,but it is a means of helping others to get knowledge about things they are yet to know and to help the person asking also to have more knowledge too


Posted via proofofbrain.io

yes that is very right most time you ask questions for others that dont see from a perspective to also see

there are some people that they dont really think about some certain matter with they need, just because their mind is not there,

but when questions are raised in that area then they now think that this thing they need it. sometimes questions are just an alarm system for some people, and increase of knowledge to some and change of mind set and conviction to some


Posted via proofofbrain.io

Yes, it is true all parents do that for their children, because they want to know, maybe the children to know more than them or to know maybe you are a good child.

They always use it wisdom to test your knowledge and understanding as a child and if you answer well, they will tell you and if you did not they will also tell you.

And they will make sure they hide their own to yours, so that you will know more than your mate.

Good day man. Quite a thoughtful question. A combination of these three is very important in anyone's life. But going by your question and if I'm to pick one ahead, I will go for the wisdom as I believe it stands a little bit ahead of the rest.

The scripture says wisdom is the principal Proverbs 4:7. This attribute offers certain form of direction and I believe we all need that in anything we do in this life.

Other two are also quite good but without wisdom, knowledge and understanding only matter little. The other two seems useless and fruitless in certain situations. This is the reason you see certain men of understanding and knowledge gets into certain situation that is beyond their control because they lack wisdom to act at the right time.

Life is not about knowing and understanding , it about acting and been in the right place at the right time, acting in certain manner at the appropriate time. Basically doing things at the right time.

In reality all are good at the appropriate measure, to avoid any imbalance. If I am to rank them, wisdom First, understanding comes second and then knowledge.

i am highly amazed with your comment to this question, i really love it, life 8s not only about knowing things but know what to do, where to be and acting at the right time

this answer is wonder i dont think this very answer can cause imbalance it is highly acceptable

wow you have said it all especially with the bible verse you use to back up your comment.

this is a good and challenging question and i think this is the beauty of this platform.

Great topic from you friend!
the three are very important because
If you have Knowledge and no wisdom and understanding you are not a complete human being
Because as man that want to get married which you know that your wife was trained from different home and you guys want be leaving as one, you will surely pray for God wisdom from above to understand your wife.
Which you're already have the marriage knowledge.
with this small explanation you can see that wisdom is the greatest among the others
Though the three are very important but wisdom important most among the three
Thanks for this topic

If you have Knowledge and no wisdom and understanding you are not a complete human being

well said. the truth but for me i still strongly believe others can be achieved after get understanding.


Posted via proofofbrain.io

Waoo I'm so intrested in this your question I believe slot are going to learn here first I will love to answer it in ascending order just to give a full understanding of it the way I understand it..

Understanding, firstly I will like to explain what it means by understanding in it simple form is a psychological concept in relating to an obstacle that is getting use to how things is being done..

Knowledge : their are not much different from each other as Knowledge is a familiarity, awareness, or understanding of someone or something, such as facts

Lastly which is wisdom the Bible called is the principal thing to me I agree with it because it carry both the understanding and knowledge..

And why is wisdom or sagacity sound so important because is the ability to think and take a reasonable action using understanding and knowledge that is the mostly reason when you see people with wisdom you like it when their talk

In conclusion I will like to say it that Wisdom is the master of because of the position it stand and it carry all the other listed below to carryout it action

And why is wisdom or sagacity sound so important because is the ability to think and take a reasonable action using understanding and knowledge that is the mostly reason when you see people with wisdom you like it when their talk

i also agree with you that wisdomis the ability to think and take a reasonable action using understanding and knowledge and most especially the perfect timing to take those actions

Waoo this is an interesting contribution from you and I'm really gland to heard some vital information to that will really help me from you own point

As you say wisdom is the principal thing ,I can now see why is called the principal thing just becaise is the master of all and it carries all the our part alone with him

Understanding and knowledge are so useful in the part of wisdom because those are the weapon she uses before taking are fina decision

That is the most reason why a person with sagacity must really be appreciated because their are reare and can not be found everywhere


Posted via proofofbrain.io

Very interesting question! I find it very hard to pick only one as I believe they all complement each other!


Posted via proofofbrain.io

I believe they are all equally important and they compliment each other since they all have different functions.


Posted via proofofbrain.io

Yeah man they have different functions which they are very important in the life of human being because there is a man that says "you can achieved other if you have knowledge"meaning knowledge without understanding please tell me how can you ask for wisdom from above? Good one mate


Posted via proofofbrain.io

Exactly, they all work hand in hand so having all three is the best thing


Posted via proofofbrain.io

Definitely ,but on a contrary I must say I don't see any as superior among them , cause they are all useful and without one among all,I see life as useless to such being

So it is vital that someone must posses all and just like a saying,it is not a crime if you don't everything,but at least you must know something about everything


Posted via proofofbrain.io

The reason why one is superior is because anything that is not common to most people can be considered as superior ,

people have knowledge because you gain knowledge on daily basis but lesser people have understanding and people with wisdom are few wisdom is the principal thing


Posted via proofofbrain.io

What is the place is the place of understanding when you don't have knowledge about a particular thing,am not trying to shift your brain mate,but I always like when people are able to convince me or even confused me with their point ,it is true that you have actually build your self on a basis of understanding ,which is good to me.

You don't have understanding about what you don't knw and that is why assumptions are put lot of people into problems today, arguably your might be right from your end,but I don't really concur to one way traffic of thinking mate.

I strongly stand by words that they works hand in hand with each other and if I want to come with the comments that have read on this Post where some said that was what Solomon too asked for in the Bible,I will say it means he didn't set aside any as superior I guess.

They are brother's and sisters mates one becomes useless when you are lacking one out of it,you can't make use of one alone without the help of the other.

Have fun and enjoy your weekend

fantastic question but for me i think all of them is important but I think understanding is the root of getting the wisdom an knowledge.

though sometimes it can be hard to separate the three concept.


Posted via proofofbrain.io

fantastic idea but i think @jersteemit has said it all by giving a scriptural passage to support his point that wisdom is the best to get.

this is a fantastic question anyway and it is really challenging


Posted via proofofbrain.io

yes , i also agree with the answer it was great

for me i this understanding is the greatest because you cant be wise if you dont understand situations
