Hi,
"The Sages also mentioned that one is first charged
regarding knowledge of Torah, then he is charged regarding knowledge of [general] wisdom,
and then he is charged for the Torah he should learn, meaning to draw
from it that which he should perform. So the order should be, that [Torah] concepts
should be known first via tradition and then clarified via [logical] proof, and
then the deeds which improve one's path should be deduced.
"This is what they
said (Talmud, Shabbat 31a), regarding a person being expected to achieve these three items in this order: when one enters [posthumous] judgment, they first say, 'Did you set time
for Torah? Did you analyze with wisdom? Did you understand one thing from
another?'"
(Rambam, Moreh haNevuchim 3:54)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
