 Third Discourse 2:1 — Schooling (Proverbs by N. Simon)
 {v.1-5} The Christian need not be scholarly and profound to understand the Scripture of truth. It is condition of soul, rather than a well-furnished mind, that is required. God has given His word. He exhorts us to search it in dependence upon His Holy Spirit, who is now come to guide us into all truth. (Proverbs Two by H.A. Ironside)
 It is no careless reading of the Scriptures that is here indicated. The soul is exhorted to “receive” these sayings. This is something more than a cursory examination of them. The sayings of God must be received into the heart. (Proverbs Two by H.A. Ironside)
