    Reading Questions
    For next week you’re reading Job 27 to 42. Answer the
    following:
    • How does the story of Job end? (42)
    • What appears to be the purpose of Proverbs from
    the first 2 chapters?
    • Define the attributes of “wisdom” as Proverbs
    seems to describe it. (3-4)
    • What lesson does it appear the ant has to teach?
    (6)
    • Wisdom is personified in Chapter 8, how does she
    compare with the adulteress in 7?
    • How does Folly compare with the adulteress and
    wisdom? (9)
    • Pick one of the short proverbs in 11 or 12 that
    especially pops out to you.
    • What is the relationship between king and people
    found in 14 and does it only blame the ruler?
    The Book of Proverbs and
    Worldview
    The Book of Proverbs is an often times overlooked book.
    Its short, pithy sayings and lofty philosophical treatises
    are sometimes hard to digest quickly. Because of that,
    we often turn away from the treasures that this book
    has to offer – especially in regards to the way in which
    we view the world.

    Most likely this compilation of different writers on the


    subject of life was put together in order to give Israel an
    understanding of what a God-fearing worldview was
    like. The wisdom of the Holy Spirit is communicated
    through these words, especially in regards to how
    someone who claims a relationship with God should see
    his or her relationship with the world.

    Some clear worldview maxims appear as general ideas


    in Proverbs:

    • There is both good and evil/wisdom and folly


    in the world.
    • Human beings have the freedom to reject
    wisdom and choose folly, but those
    decisions have clear consequences.
    • The enemies of wisdom will always seem
    more enticing, but wisdom will always be
    better in the end.
    • Human relationships have rules, and those
    rules have been established by God.
    Please don’t throw this away. If you’re not going to use it, leave it for
    someone else to use.
