The concept of advising is deeply rooted in the wisdom literature of the Bible, where the importance of seeking and heeding wise counsel is frequently emphasized.<br><br><b>Old Testament References:</b> <br>The Old Testament provides numerous examples of advice being sought and given. In the book of Proverbs, advice is closely associated with wisdom. <a href="/proverbs/12-15.htm">Proverbs 12:15</a> states, "The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to counsel." This highlights the value placed on seeking advice from others, particularly those who are wise and experienced.<br><br>In <a href="/bsb/1_kings/12.htm">1 Kings 12</a>, we see a narrative involving Rehoboam, Solomon's son, who sought advice on how to rule the people of Israel. The elders advised him to serve the people and speak kindly to them, but he rejected their counsel in favor of the advice from his peers, leading to disastrous consequences (<a href="/1_kings/12-6.htm">1 Kings 12:6-11</a>).<br><br><b>New Testament References:</b> <br>The New Testament also underscores the importance of giving and receiving advice. In <a href="/bsb/acts/15.htm">Acts 15</a>, during the Council of Jerusalem, the apostles and elders gathered to discuss and advise on the issue of Gentile believers and the Mosaic Law. Their collective decision, guided by the Holy Spirit, was communicated as advice to the churches (<a href="/acts/15-28.htm">Acts 15:28-29</a>).<br><br>The Apostle Paul frequently offered advice to the early churches through his epistles. In <a href="/1_corinthians/7-25.htm">1 Corinthians 7:25</a> , Paul states, "Now about virgins, I have no command from the Lord, but I give a judgment as one who by the Lord&#8217;s mercy is trustworthy." Here, Paul distinguishes between direct commands from the Lord and his own advice, which is based on his understanding and experience.<br><br><b>Principles of Advising:</b> <br>The Bible provides several principles regarding the giving and receiving of advice:<br><br>1. <b>Seek Godly Counsel:</b> <a href="/proverbs/19-20.htm">Proverbs 19:20</a> advises, "Listen to counsel and accept discipline, that you may be wise the rest of your days." Seeking advice from those who are godly and wise is encouraged.<br><br>2. <b>Discernment:</b> Not all advice is beneficial. 1 <a href="/john/4.htm">John 4:1</a> warns, "Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God." Discernment is necessary to evaluate the quality and source of advice.<br><br>3. <b>Humility:</b> Accepting advice requires humility. <a href="/proverbs/13-10.htm">Proverbs 13:10</a> states, "Arrogance leads only to strife, but wisdom is with the well-advised." A humble heart is open to correction and guidance.<br><br>4. <b>Prayerful Consideration:</b> <a href="/james/1-5.htm">James 1:5</a> encourages believers to seek wisdom from God: "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him." Prayer is a vital component in seeking and giving advice.<br><br><b>Examples of Biblical Figures Giving Advice:</b> <br>&#183; <b>Jethro to Moses:</b> In <a href="/bsb/exodus/18.htm">Exodus 18</a>, Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, advised Moses to delegate responsibilities to capable men to avoid burnout. Moses heeded this advice, which improved the administration of justice among the Israelites (<a href="/exodus/18-17.htm">Exodus 18:17-24</a>).<br><br>&#183; <b>Nathan to David:</b> The prophet Nathan advised King David on several occasions, including confronting him about his sin with Bathsheba (<a href="/2_samuel/12.htm">2 Samuel 12:1-14</a>). Nathan's advice was instrumental in leading David to repentance.<br><br>&#183; <b>Paul to Timothy:</b> Paul provided Timothy with advice on leading the church, encouraging him to be an example in speech, conduct, love, faith, and purity (<a href="/1_timothy/4-12.htm">1 Timothy 4:12</a>).<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b> <br>The biblical perspective on advice emphasizes the importance of seeking wisdom from God and others, the necessity of discernment, and the value of humility in receiving guidance. Through the examples of biblical figures and the teachings of Scripture, believers are encouraged to both give and receive advice in a manner that honors God and promotes spiritual growth.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

In <a href="/1_samuel/25-33.htm">1 Samuel 25:33</a> the King James Version (from, Ta`am, "taste," "reason") "advice" is equal to "sagacity" (the Revised Version (British and American) "blessed be thy discretion"). In <a href="/2_chronicles/25-17.htm">2 Chronicles 25:17</a> (from ya`ac, "to give or take counsel") the meaning seems to be "to consult with oneself"; compare also <a href="/judges/19-30.htm">Judges 19:30</a> the King James Version (the Revised Version (British and American) "take counsel").<br><br>(2) Advise: In <a href="/2_samuel/24-13.htm">2 Samuel 24:13</a> the King James Version (from yadha, "to know") "to advise" means "to advise oneself," i.e. "to consider" (the Revised Version (British and American) "advise thee") Compare also <a href="/1_chronicles/21-12.htm">1 Chronicles 21:12</a> the King James Version (the Revised Version (British and American) "consider" from, ra'ah, "to see") and <a href="/proverbs/13-10.htm">Proverbs 13:10</a> where "well-advised" is the same as "considerate" (from ya`ac; see <a href="/2_chronicles/25-17.htm">2 Chronicles 25:17</a>).<br><br>(3) Advisement (antiquated): Found once in the Old Testament in <a href="/1_chronicles/12-19.htm">1 Chronicles 12:19</a> (from `etsah, "counsel"), where "upon advisement" means "upon deliberation."
