"Yet wisdom is justified by her deeds.”

Matt 11:19 "Yet wisdom is justified by her deeds.”

cf Matt 11: 2 Now when John heard in prison about the deeds of the Christ

From Life Application Bible Commentary :

This is God's wisdom personified as a woman(her deeds) ( See also Proverbs eg. 1:20) God's wisdom is seen in Jesus' deeds. People could see the kingdom's power through Jesus' miracles. These miracles vindicated(justified) Jesus' teaching. People might reject both the miracles and the teaching, but that will not change their truth nor will it hinder the kingdom's arrival.
