From where, then, comes wisdom? Where is the place of understanding?

Job uses these questions to introduce how people get wisdom and understanding. Alternate translation: "I will tell you where wisdom comes from and where understanding is." or "I will tell you how to become wise and how to learn to understand things." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)

From where, then, comes wisdom

Wisdom is spoken of as if it were in a place and comes to people. Its coming represents people becoming wise. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)

Where is the place of understanding

Understanding is spoken of as if it were in a place. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)
