Book of Proverbs

Book • 800
The Book of Proverbs is a wisdom literature book that addresses various aspects of life, including wealth creation, sexuality, friendship, marriage, and child training.

It is divided into several sections, each with distinct themes such as the invitation to acquire wisdom, contrasting the wise and the fool, and moral discourses on justice, the wicked, and the rich and poor.

The book emphasizes the fear of God as the beginning of wisdom and personifies wisdom as a guiding force in creation and human life.

Contributions come from King Solomon, Agur, Lemuel, the men of Hezekiah, and other anonymous wise individuals.
