**fear**
*(See Scofield "**")*

**The Lord possessed me**
That wisdom is more than the personification of an attribute of God, or of the will of God as best for man, but is a distinct adumbration of Christ, is sure to the devout mind. [Proverbs 8:22-36](../../../kjv/proverbs/8/22-36); [John 1:1-3](../../../kjv/john/1/1-3); [Colossians 1:17](../../../kjv/colossians/1/17) can refer to nothing less than the Eternal Son of God.
