Knowledge is wasted on those who do not apply it.
"And the Lord heard your words when you spoke to me. And the Lord said to me, 'I have heard
the words of this people, which they have spoken to you. They are right in all that they have spoken. Oh, that they had such a heart as this always, to fear me and to keep all my commandments, that it might go well with them and with their descendants forever! Go and say to them, "Return to your tents." But you, stand here by me, and I will tell you the whole commandment and the statutes and the rules that you shall teach them, that they may do them in the land that I am giving them to possess.' You shall be careful, therefore to do as the Lord your God has commanded you. You shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.”
Deuteronomy 5:28-32 ESVST
Knowledge is wasted on those who do not apply it. It is not good to know and not do.
Ignorant behavior can be corrected with knowledge. Knowledge cannot help those who are intentionally disobedient. How correction takes place depends on why you need it.
