‏ Luke 7:35

Verse 35. Wisdom is justified, &c.] Probably the children of wisdom is a mere Hebraism here for the products or fruits of wisdom; hence the Vatican MS., one other, and some versions, have εργων, works, instead of τεκνων, sons, in the parallel place, Mt 11:19. True wisdom shows itself by its works; folly is never found in the wise man's way, any more than wisdom is in the path of a fool. Theophylact's note on this place should not be overlooked. εδικαιωθητουτεστινετιμηθη, Wisdom IS JUSTIFIED, that is, IS HONOURED, by all her children.
