Accessible commentary walking through Proverbs to give you divine wisdom for everyday life.
Part of the God's Word For You series.
In the Proverbs, God offers us wisdom for real life and he shows us Jesus, who was wisdom personified and exemplified.
This accessible, absorbing commentary by Kathleen Nielson walks through Proverbs to bring these ancient sayings to life, helping ordinary Christians to see what it can look like to enjoy living in line with God's wisdom in the great multitude of everyday situations and decisions we face.
This accessible commentary gives an expository rather than topical treatment to the book of Proverbs, so it can be read as originally intended.
You can read through this commentary as a normal book, work through it devotionally, or use it as you prepare for teaching or preaching a passage. As you read, you’ll pay close attention to the text and clean insights into the original historical, cultural, and biblical context while gaining clear and grounded application for Christians today.
