    Representations of the Table of

    Wisdom in Serbian Churches of the


    Fourteenth Century

    Anđelija Kozakijević
    Proverbs of Solomon 9, 1-6
    Wisdom has built her house;
    she has set up its seven pillars.
    She has prepared her meat and mixed her wine;
    she has also set her table.
    She has sent out her servants, and she calls
    from the highest point of the city,
    “Let all who are simple come to my house!”
    To those who have no sense she says,
    “Come, eat my food
    and drink the wine I have mixed.
    Leave your simple ways and you will live;
    walk in the way of insight.”
