I noticed in 2 versions of the Tanach, the Koren has wisdom as "she" and the Artscroll has wisdom as "it."

Loved this video . Makes every sense with “knowledge” I now have a little more “wisdom”
For my own thinking over the years “wisdom” (I imagined) was a highly esteemed virtue by God who represented it to the reader as a beautiful (beauty of holiness) type woman whom God is very protective of as well as sensitive to , highly regarded, in the sense that His message rings out “all must seek this out”
For example all men desire to wed a beautiful , virtuous woman . This is wisdom ……. So here’s one for the spirit now go out and marry one for the flesh as it were.

Well if this is true, it helps me a lot. I wanted to know why this is gendered.
