In context
20Young men have seen light, and dwelt upon the earth; but the way of knowledge have they not known,
21nor understood the paths thereof, nor laid hold of it: their children were far off from that way.
— Baruch 3:22 —
23The Hagarites that seek wisdom upon earth, the merchants of Merran and of Teman, the authors of fables, and searchers out of understanding; none of these have known the way of wisdom, or remembered her paths.
24O Israel, how great is the house of God! and how large is the place of his possession!
