This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
declare - manifest her, namely, in His works (Psa 19:1, Psa 19:2). So the approval bestowed by the Creator on His works (Gen 1:10, Gen 1:31); compare the “rejoicing” of wisdom at the same (Pro 8:30; which Umbreit translates; “I was the skilful artificer by His side”).
prepared - not created, for wisdom is from everlasting (Pro 8:22-31); but “established” her as Governor of the world.
searched ... out - examined her works to see whether she was adequate to the task of governing the world [Maurer].
