The escalating growth of our
technological knowledge in the last
century has been nothing short of
breathtaking - but has it rendered us
wiser? Or godlier?
We have lost something priceless, and
seem to be trying to replace it with
more and more ‘information’. We need
wisdom! Communications technology
leaves us no rest to work things out:
mostly we just react, and worry, and
fail - and react again. We make
business decisions; ethical decisions;
relationship decisions; against a
continuously moving landscape that
doesn’t allow them to be satisfying…
consistent… dependable.
To cope we must have wisdom! There is
no better starting point than the Book
of Proverbs. Its purpose is to impart
wisdom to those who want it. From its
pages God promises to set us on ‘The
path of life’ (Prov. 15:24).
‘You don’t understand! I don’t have
time!
’You do……because, after years of
painstaking study, John Kitchen has
produced a work that is authoritative,
comprehensive and insightful. He
examines the chronology, authorship,
composition, structure and context of
Proverbs and does the hard work of
providing cross-references alerting
the reader to rich veins running
beneath the surface of Proverbs and
other Biblical books.
You want wisdom to help run your life?
Think you are running out of time?
Then this is a priceless, timeless
book that will reward your investment
as you seek to gain wisdom, rather
than knowledge.
