What does the Bible say about glory and wisdom?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that we should not glory in our wisdom but in knowing the Lord, who delights in lovingkindness and righteousness.

In Jeremiah 9:23-24, God instructs us not to glory in our wisdom, strength, or wealth, as these are temporary and ultimately meaningless in the grand scheme of our relationship with Him. Instead, the acceptable glory is found in understanding and knowing the Lord, who exercises lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness. This knowing transcends mere acknowledgment; it signifies a deep, relational understanding of God and His character, leading us away from self-glorification towards glorifying God alone.
