1 Bible Verses About rubies

No mention shall be made of coral, or of pearls: for the price of wisdom is above rubies.

Job 28:18KJV
The sacred texts, in referencing the ruby, invariably employ its brilliance and scarcity not as ends in themselves, but as poignant comparisons. They do not extol the stone itself, but rather the inestimable value of wisdom, of understanding, of a life guided by divine principle, and of the virtuous soul. These passages consistently redirect our gaze from the glittering, perishable things of the earth to the imperishable treasures of the spirit. The ruby thus stands as a silent, gleaming witness to a profound truth: that true wealth resides not in earthly accumulation, however precious it may seem, but in the cultivation of inner goodness, in the pursuit of wisdom that descends from above, and in the richness of a life aligned with grace. Let the mention of this rare gem serve as a perennial invitation to discern and ardently seek the true rubies of existence – those virtues and insights of eternal price.
