Abraham & Sarah Never Happened?

Worldly wisdom is not what was being promoted in the book of Proverbs. There is a major distinction between worldly wisdom and divine wisdom. The serpent crawling on the ground like a reptile was obviously 'down low' rather than up high.

And the lord commended the unrighteous steward that he did prudently, because the sons of this age are more prudent than the sons of the light, in respect to their generation. Luke 16:8

"And his master praised the unrighteous manager because he had acted shrewdly; for the sons of this age are more shrewd in relation to their own kind than the sons of light. Luke 16:8

At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.

Just because the babes were babes before reception of the Divine Wisdom doesn't mean they remained unwise after reception. To be wise in the worldly since without Godly wisdom does not necessarily rule out blindness. The Pharisees were called a brood of vipers, no? Perhaps they were wise and shrewd in the worldly sense. Clearly Jesus did not regard them to be wise in the Divine sense.

Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no guilt; but now that you say, ‘We see,’ your guilt remains." John 9:41

"Very truly I tell you Pharisees, anyone who does not enter the sheep pen by the gate, but climbs in by some other way, is a thief and a robber." John 10:1 (follows immediately in sequence)

They were so 'wise' (in the wrong way--the serpent/reptile/worldly way?) that they could not see and did not realize that they could not see. I have met many folks like that who wreak destruction wheresoever they go, and they cannot see that they cannot see, they do not realize that they cannot feel as others do because they in their sin have become insensitive to the abhorrence thereof.

For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 1 Corinthians 1:18

Also, FYI "babes" can mean those who were pure of heart, innocent and free of the guile of the world rather they be 7 or 77 years of age.

Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom. James 3:13

Remember, MJ, the cherubim were part of the temple, too. The word cherubim is somewhat similar to the word 'curb'. A curb keeps you from hurting yourself or hurting others. Cherubim might partially serve a similar function.
