Proverbs: Annotated & Explained is unavailable, but you can change that!

The biblical Book of Proverbs was compiled in the seventh century BCE and credited to King Solomon. In this fresh translation, Rami Shapiro unpacks the book, writing that its wisdom transcends time and place and instructs readers to live simply, without rationalizations and excuses.

4:7–9 What is the beginning of wisdom? Get wisdom!36 Whatever else you do, get insight. Praise her and she will lift you up. Embrace her and she will honor you. She will circle your brow like a fresh garland and rest on your mind as a crown upon your head.
