Little Heads Up on Proverbs

Background:

Proverbs was written by King Solomon. He was the wisest man that ever walked the earth. Read 1 Kings Chapter 3 to find out why.

Solomon's interest in proverbs is corroborated by 1 Kings 4:29–34: “Solomon's wisdom surpassed the wisdom of all the people of the east and all the wisdom of Egypt. . . . He also spoke 3,000 proverbs, and his songs were 1,005.” However, the proverbs mentioned in Kings are not necessarily identical to those of the book of Proverbs.

Theme
Proverbs states its theme right at the book's beginning (1:1–7): its goal is to describe and instill “wisdom” in God's people, a wisdom that is founded in the “fear of the Lord” and that works out covenant life in the practical details of everyday situations and relationships.
