02-Jun-2026
The book of Proverbs is categorized as wisdom literature, and as we read through its pages, we can see that it does highlight practical wisdom. It urges its readers to learn from its words, rather than having to learn through their own mistakes. Proverbs ultimately shows us that the source of all true wisdom is a humble, faith-filled relationship with God. It is structured in a really interesting way: The first section begins with dialogue that parents would have with their child, and the
second section contains short, wise or trustworthy sayings. The author of Proverbs is believed to have been King Solomon, stemming not necessarily from a faithful life but from a gift of God that is described in 1 Kings 4:30-32. Proverbs 25:1 also tells us that the latter parts of the book were collected long after Solomon’s life by the court members of King Hezekiah. Hezekiah reigned
sometime between 729-699 BC, and claims to have added proverbs of Solomon to the official book of Proverbs that had previously been written elsewhere.

What We Say Matters; Proverbs 12-14
James, the half-brother of Jesus, warned us about what we say. James says, “Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires. Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things” (JAMES 3:4-5...
