All in the context of "wisdom" - defined as the knowledge of how to regulate one's relationship with God, knowing how to judge circumstances and "life situations" that we find ourselves in and how it ( the circumstances) plays in our closeness to God. You can see what's happening around you and determine what it has to do with you and God... what He is doing and why. The Greeks just observed the course and motions of the heavens, ascending to the mountain top to gain a better view of all things around them. Watching the sky to determine the course of the storm. What is a godly man to be looking at and watching?
Skillful, watchman, experience, prudent, balanced, truth, sensible, expert, wise.
How are these character traits developed?
Read Psalm 119:97-104 and at the same time read James chapter 1 through chapter 4:17
Key points:
Wisdom gained through hard times and trial...
Learning to know the difference between trials and temptation...
Being real... ( an effectual doer of Gods word not just appearance only )
So speak and so act...
The heart of man as seen (heard) through the man's mouth...
Pure, Balanced...
Peaceful closeness to God...
Making the right decisions in one's daily walk...
Best,
