When we speak of intelligence in the biblical sense, we are referring to spiritual intelligence, the capacity to perceive, understand, and respond to reality as it actually is, not merely as it appears to natural perception. This involves accessing dimensions of knowledge, wisdom, and understanding that transcend the limitations of empirical observation and rational deduction.
Intelligence is fundamentally spiritual in nature and by default divine in origin. This statement may sound unusual or even controversial to those conditioned by secular educational paradigms that treat intelligence as merely a function of genetics, brain chemistry, and environmental conditioning.

We cannot build a successful, viable society without the right mindset and system that will make it work.
