Creation Moment 1/24/2018 - Wisdom's Role in Creation

"The longest description of Wisdom’s role in creation is found in Proverbs 8:22–31, where she is personified:

The Lord possessed me at the beginning of his work, the first of his acts of old. Ages ago I was set up, at the first, before the beginning of the earth. When there were no depths I was brought forth, when there were no springs abounding with water.

Before the mountains had been shaped, before the hills, I was brought forth, before he had made the earth with its fields, or the first of the dust of the world.
When he established the heavens, I was there; when he drew a circle on the face of the deep, when he made firm skies above, when he established the fountains of the deep, when he assigned to the sea its limit, so that the waters might not transgress his command, when he marked out the foundations of the earth, then I was beside him, like a master workman, and I was daily his delight, rejoicing before him always, rejoicing in his inhabited world and delighting in the children of man.

This tells us that Wisdom is as eternal as God Himself—because Wisdom comes from God, and He has always possessed it. The above list of the things that Wisdom preceded has obvious parallels in Genesis 1, and “the first of the dust of the world” is probably an oblique reference to Adam, who was formed from the dust (Genesis 2:7, 1 Corinthians 15:47).
Wisdom was also a major organizing principle for God’s creation." CMI
