Proverbs chapter ten talks about quite a few topics, to list the moral categories mentioned throughout the proverb there is diligence, laziness, language and personal security. This proverb comes from Solomon and starts off with the difference between the foolish son and a wise son. The wise son gives joy to the to the parent whereas the foolish one brings sorrow. In the same sort of comparison continuing on with the foolish like the lazy and the wise like the diligent, the proverb continues on in

Exegesis of Proverbs 31 Woman The qualities of good entrepreneurs are closely analogous to those found in Proverbs 31:10-31. The pericope, Proverbs 31 is perceived extraordinarily and equivocally, since it proposes that a capable wife is tough to find and still the verse immediately continues to praise one. This one woman may be the ‘perfect’ wife that one man cannot find. Still, even if she is a challenge to find, she is probably working hard to achieve that patriarchal goal. Verses 14 and 16

Introduction ! ! The book of Psalms consists of one hundred fifty songs and prayers in the Wisdom literature section of the Bible. The identification of some psalms as prayers is also seen within the text, for example in the conclusion to Psalm 72, "The prayers of David

our hurt or our belief that something is possible. This means that we have to trust in the Lord that his will for our lives will be done. Because we have to trust Gods authority over our lives, we also have to trust God 's love for our lives. In the book, How to read Job, the authors write, "One of the ways we trust God 's wisdom is by refraining from inquiring why God did such a thing to us, or why he allowed it to happen."(Walton, 136) The first step to knowing that God loves us is to not get

mistakes. If an individual makes one, they might realize it, but never pay attention to how they could fix it. If they would just realize their mistake and use it to make a decision in the future, however, they would have become wiser. In Chaim Potok’s book The Chosen, Danny and Reuven’s wisdom produces a genuine and rich communication between the two, nurtured a mutual pursuit of truth, and directed them to developing a deep

wisdom books consist of worship, fluctuation love, historical background, the worst aspect of life, literature, and wisdom (oxfordbiblicalstudies). I have noticed that the literature books continue to discuss issues of daily living with little information on how Israel had a vow with God. When reading these non-canonical wisdom books my outlook of poetry is comprehended into confidence and conviction. Having the ability and a different perspective to look at the non-canonical wisdom books is one

knowledge, and good judgment. Marcel Proust, a brilliant French novelist, once said,”We don’t receive wisdom; we must discover it for ourselves after a journey that no one can take for us or spare us.” This quote couldn’t be more true for J.R.R Tolkien’s book, The Hobbit. The story itself is about a young man who must discover what it truly means to live a life of excitement. Some may say it is the main character Bilbo who achieves a great deal of wisdom throughout his adventure, but the dwarves that travel

truths and knowledge of humanity are organized in text, when the genre of wisdom and content combine, that Wisdom literature is formed. The aim of Wisdom literature is to search for propriety, the order of things in time and place (Narendorf). The Book of Job is an example of this aim as Job reveals alternative insight into the consequences of human behavior. Likewise, Aias and Odysseus, in Sophocles’ Aias, also offer a contradiction of conventional wisdom in regards to human relationships. Odysseus’

Wisdom is the accumulative gathering of experience and knowledge. In books and movies wisdom is shown through age, and more times than not, a long white beard. In movies like Harry Potter and Lord of The Rings the wise character is an old wizard, while in the story Oedipus the wise character is old, blind Tiresias. All of these characters have a single thing in common, age. For this reason I believe that wisdom has nothing to do with intelligence or brilliance; wisdom is more about the sheer amount
