(Proverbs 12:23 KJV) A prudent man concealeth knowledge: but the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.
This assumes that prudence is a character trait of the righteous. The righteous man “conceals” (3680) “knowledge” (1847). I want to live a righteous life so again I am reminded that my speech patterns are a part of my walk.
As we walk with Jesus we need to conceal what we know by taking the time to be sure of our facts. Ponder and meditate on what you see. The Holy Spirit does not always plant understanding in our hearts and minds as a fully developed pattern. Time will reveal what no amount of intellect can discern.
An important part of this is the prayer of listening and the worship of reading the word.
So? Silence can be golden and time will tell you whether it is gold you hold in your hand or just a cheap imitation. One will turn your hand green.
