Proverbs: Learning to Live Wisely

This 95-page booklet is an excellent fill-in-the blank study guide for the individual or a Bible study group. Right at the beginning you get two invitations to two different dinners, each held at the same time (Lady Wisdom & Dame Folly). At the begining of each of the 13 theme-based lessons are listed selected proverbs illustrating that theme. There suggestions on how to study and Leader's notes. For a more in-depth commentary as a companion read THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO THE BOOK OF PROVERBS by Cody Jones. The comments are interesting and very readable and put things into a historical setting. It includes many historical drawings and photos to give you a sense of the culture of the time. There is a topical guide and 6 translations in parallel to aid understanding. Also many of the mysteries and riddles of Proverbs are explored.
