I have a great study book of the Bible (not actual study bible, but study book based on biblical topics). Here is one on knowledge for you. Hope you gain great wisdom from GOD's Word.

GOD = All Knowledge / Wisdom

1 Samuel 2:3
3 "Do not keep talking so proudly
or let your mouth speak such arrogance,
for the LORD is a God who knows,
and by him deeds are weighed.
GOD the Father / Jesus Christ = One Together All Knowing

Matthew 11:25-27
25At that time Jesus said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. 26Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure. 27"All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.

Luke 10:22
22"All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and no one knows who the Father is except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him."

John 7:28-29
28Then Jesus, still teaching in the temple courts, cried out, "Yes, you know me, and you know where I am from. I am not here on my own, but he who sent me is true. You do not know him, 29but I know him because I am from him and he sent me."

John 17:1-25
John 10:14-15

Hearing Knowledge

Proverbs 22:17

17 Pay attention and listen to the sayings of the wise;
apply your heart to what I teach,

Proverbs 23:12
12 Apply your heart to instruction
and your ears to words of knowledge.

John 8:17-19

17In your own Law it is written that the testimony of two men is valid. 18I am one who testifies for myself; my other witness is the Father, who sent me." 19Then they asked him, "Where is your father?"

John 14:6-7
6Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7If you really knew me, you would know[a] my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him."

Reward for Rejecting Wisdom

Isaiah 5:13
13 Therefore my people will go into exile
for lack of understanding;
their men of rank will die of hunger
and their masses will be parched with thirst.

Also read:
Proverbs 20:15
Proverbs 1:20-32

Finding, Increasing in Knowledge

Psalm 89:15-16

15 Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you,
who walk in the light of your presence, O LORD. 16 They rejoice in your name all day long;
they exult in your righteousness.

Proverbs 17:27
27 A man of knowledge uses words with restraint,
and a man of understanding is even-tempered.

Proverbs 28:2
2 When a country is rebellious, it has many rulers,
but a man of understanding and knowledge maintains order.

Also read:
2 Peter 1:1-11

Power of Knowledge

Proverbs 11:9
9 With his mouth the godless destroys his neighbor,
but through knowledge the righteous escape.

Proverbs 24:3-4

3 By wisdom a house is built,
and through understanding it is established; 4 through knowledge its rooms are filled
with rare and beautiful treasures.

Knowledge Defined

Isaiah 33:5-6
5 The LORD is exalted, for he dwells on high;
he will fill Zion with justice and righteousness.
6 He will be the sure foundation for your times,
a rich store of salvation and wisdom and knowledge;
the fear of the LORD is the key to this treasure.

Preserving Knowledge

Proverbs 22:12
12 The eyes of the LORD keep watch over knowledge,
but he frustrates the words of the unfaithful.

Who Has Knowledge?

Proverbs 14:18
18 The simple inherit folly,
but the prudent are crowned with knowledge.

2 Peter 1:1-8

1Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ,
To those who through the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ have received a faith as precious as ours:
2Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord. Making One's Calling and Election Sure

3His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. 4Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.

5For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; 6and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; 7and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love. 8For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Who Has No Knowledge?

Isaiah 45:20
20 "Gather together and come;
assemble, you fugitives from the nations.
Ignorant are those who carry about idols of wood,
who pray to gods that cannot save.

Also read:
Isaiah 44:9-19
1 Timothy 6:3-5

All in all, the book of Proverbs is my first choice for a book of wisdom of the 66 total books in the Holy Bible. I highly recommend everyone study it carefully. Its rather simple to understand, straightforward after all. Great advice from GOD and practical.
