Kabbalah zu Mischlej 8:12

Rabbi Chiya then quoted the verse, "I, wisdom, dwell with prudence, and find knowledge in crafty schemes" (Mishlei 8:12). "I, wisdom" refers to the Congregation of Yisrael; "dwell with prudence" is Jacob, who is prudent; "find knowledge in crafty schemes" alludes to Isaac, who used knowledge and stratagems to bless Esau. Wisdom was joined with Jacob, who dealt with prudence. Therefore Jacob (was to) "find knowledge in crafty devices," by which he was blessed by his father, , and all the blessings rested upon him and prevailed upon him and his descendants forever.
