God Only Wise

"What does the Bible mean when it calls God wise? In Scripture, wisdom is a moral as well as an intellectual quality, more than mere intelligence or knowledge, just as it is more than cleverness or cunning. For us to be truly wise, in the Bible sense, our intelligence must be harnessed to a right end. Wisdom is the power to see, and the inclination to choose, the best and higher goal, together with the surest means of attaining it." from Knowing God by J. I. Packer page 90
