The assurance that wisdom gives shade as money gives shade, and the advantage of knowledge is that wisdom preserves the life of its possessor, extends the comparison while suggesting different but complementary forms of protection.

This verse recommends seeking wisdom as a more enduring good than mere accumulation.
