Brothers and sisters, this table is for the wise. But wisdom is not defined by a university professor, but by our Lord. Jesus gives wisdom without regard to status and age. He gives wisdom to little infants, and to all who seek him. “Seek wisdom, and you shall find it,” is the promise of Solomon. Solomon is not just some random wise king in history, he is in fact a picture of the greater Solomon. Solomon’s wisdom points us to the wisdom of Jesus who did not count himself to be wise in the eyes of the world, but who became wisdom in the flesh.
