In context
14Let us determine, then, What is reasoning? and what passion? and how many forms of the passions? and whether reasoning bears sway over all of these?
15Reasoning is, then, intellect accompanied by a life of rectitude, putting foremost the consideration of wisdom.
— 4 Maccabees 1:16 —
17And this is contained in the education of the law; by means of which we learn divine things reverently, and human things profitably.
18And the forms of wisdom are prudence, and justice, and manliness, and temperance.
