The spiritual change: The multitude of the wise is the salvation of the world, and a sensible king is the stability of any people

The sapiential books in the Bible explain to us that the wise are those people who are in the world to show us the path of truth, and because of their proximity to God, the wise also teach to us the mysteries of God: "Who is like the wise? Who knows the explanation of things?" Ecclesiastes 8:1.
Basically, a sage is a person who loves the good (Agape or spiritual love), and by this love the wise has the gifts of wisdom, discernment and knowledge. Examples of wise men in the Bible have been King David, King Solomon, and the prophet Daniel, the gift of wisdom is the result of the perfection of the fear of God in the heart of man. And the fear of God is the beginning of our relationship with God: "Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man", Ecclesiastes 12:13.
When a society falls into corruption and chaos due to the unbridled pursuit of apparent goods such as money or power, the wise person is the person who redeems and rehabilitates, because in the wise, due of his resemblance to the Lord, is the advice of God, that is, the exact justice: listen (perceive with attention), meditate with intuition and inspiration, decide with discernment.
That is why the Book of Wisdom written by King Solomon tells us: "The multitude of the wise is the salvation of the world, and a sensible king is the stability of any people" Wisdom 6:24.
The wise man is also the model of the ruler as explained in the Book of Wisdom, in fact for Aristotle in the government of only one there are two solutions, the wise man who receives the title of King, and the wicked who receives the title of tyrant.
When a sage governs, the need for the common good directs the sage's actions, and through the good example the spiritual change prevails, the common and simple people imitate their monarch, and thus society finds the right path, and the best example of this has been the King Solomon, who with his legendary wisdom, led the Kingdom of Israel to its time of greatest glory and expansion.
