Wisdom is by far, greater than miracle TRUE or FALSE?

True. With wisdom, which comes through knowledge, humans can miraculously replace dodgy hearts.

In fact, most know wisdom is much better. That's why they go to the doctor after their prayers for miracles have failed. Unfortunately, most waste time seeking miracles, and are too late to seek the advice of the wise.

For information, those who were told to rule and subdue and multiply and be blessed were told to eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, which Eve found was good for gaining wisdom. You can't rule and subdue and multiply and be blessed if you think that fruit will kill you.

You are very correct!

And by wisdom, fruit may not necessarily mean fruit in that context but it is symbolic. And it literal meaning is possibly a mystery to this day

Of course fruit does not literally mean fruit. Today we'd likely call it learning, since that's how we acquire knowledge. It's fruit will be wisdom, or at least we'd be learned.

Now imagine a God saying "you must not learn, for in the day that you learn you will surely die". Most of us will likely tell that God to go do one.

That God wouldn't stand a chance if we had already been eating every seed bearing fruit in the first place, as we'd have become far too knowledgeable to be demoted from "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth”, to be then put naked in a poxy tiny garden to tend it. We definitely deserve no more than garden tending if we refuse to eat fruits of knowledge

Fascinating book I daresay. Pity we tend to mostly be literal in our reading of it.
