Acts of Prudence

Understanding the Word of God adds knowledge; doing it removes foolishness.

Removing temptation by cutting out your eye may seem excessive; but removing the situation that creates temptation in the first place is an act of prudence.

It is a decision of the head, and that is loving God by doing the first commandment.
