γέγραπται γάρ· ἀπολῶ τὴν σοφίαν τῶν σοφῶν, καὶ τὴν σύνεσιν τῶν συνετῶν ἀθετήσω.

I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the discernment of the discerning will I bring to nought.

γεγραπται γαρ απολω την σοφιαν των σοφων και την συνεσιν των συνετων αθετησω.

I WILL DESTROY THE WISDOM OF THE WISE,
AND THE CLEVERNESS OF THE CLEVER, I WILL SET ASIDE.

Works of John Locke - page. 81 - Quoting the prophet Isaiah

לָכֵן, הִנְנִי יוֹסִף לְהַפְלִיא אֶת-הָעָם-הַזֶּה–הַפְלֵא וָפֶלֶא; וְאָבְדָה חָכְמַת חֲכָמָיו, וּבִינַת נְבֹנָיו תִּסְתַּתָּר

Epistemology is the study of how one knows what they know. Do you know how you know stuff? What is knowledge? How is knowledge acquired? What do people really know, and how do they know it?

NOTE: I recently reorganized this blog with a new taxonomy. Epistemology is one of the new major categories. (The whole idea was to group all of my articles into major topics, and then tag the articles with meta tags - for the sub topics, etc.) Some people might have been thinking… “Hey Dude, what’s up with the big words?” Someone might have been thinking… “I don’t even know what epistemology means, so I won’t click on that word.” In the midst of this, I also spelled epistemology wrong (previously spelled epistimology), so now I’m correcting my mistake, and cleaning up the tags.

Epistemology - The study of theories about knowledge; a branch of philosophy concerned with the nature and scope of knowledge.
