Intellectual virtues 1.

Understanding- The gift of understanding gives to the mind of those who have it a charisma for apprehending Christs public revelation easily and profoundly. More specifically, the gift of understanding helps those who have it penetrate to the heart of revealed truth even when they do not fully understand its entire meaning. It gives great confidence in the revealed word of God and leads those who have it to reach true conclusions from revealed principles. Understanding is greater than faith. Faith is assent to the defined articles of Catholic teaching. Understanding goes farther because it gives insight into these defined articles of belief. The gift of wisdom exceeds the gift of understanding in that it shows us Gods perspective. Understanding is one of the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit. The others are: wisdom, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety, and fear of the Lord. Understanding is also one of the five intellectual virtues.

3. Wisdom- The gift of wisdom leads the soul of those who have it to see things from Gods perspective. Wisdom is fullness of knowledge through affinity for the divine, as when a person comes to know Christs Passion through suffering. It is also love, which inspires contemplative reflection on what we believe and directs the mind to judge according to its precepts. The gift of wisdom supplements the virtue of faith and shields us against folly. The virtue of charity is part of wisdom; it inspires contemplative reflection on the divine mysteries, enjoys thinking about them, and directs the mind to judge all things according to their right principles. Wisdom is distinct from faith. Faith is assent to the defined articles of Catholic belief. Wisdom goes farther to a certain divine penetration of these truths.

Wisdom is first and highest among the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit. The others are: understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety, and fear of the Lord. Wisdom is also one of the five intellectual virtues.

5. Prudence- Prudence is correct knowledge of things to be done or avoided. Prudence resides in the intellect and is natural, that is, acquired by our own acts but also supernatural, infused with sanctifying grace. As an act of virtue, prudence requires three mental actions: taking counsel carefully with ourself and others, judging correctly from the evidence at hand, and directing the rest of our activity based on the norms we have established. Prudence is one of the four cardinal virtues; the others are justice, temperance, and fortitude. Prudence is first among the cardinal virtues and guides the others by setting rule and measure, applying moral principles to particular cases. Prudence is also one of the five intellectual virtues.
