The writer of Proverbs wrote it as a letter to his son, extolling the virtues of Wisdom and the pursuit of her. At the end of the letter in Chapter 31 He gives a physical manifestation of wisdom in the Ideal wife and mother. We may hold it us as the goal for women to aspire to . When looking at our own mothers we see that none of them measure up. Even so we are called by God to honor them. God has given us mothers for our good. He has also given us a Spiritual mother that we are to honor as well.
