The Purpose of Proverbs
Many people know the value of
studying the Book of Proverbs. Some have even suggested reading through the
book once a month. But have you ever contemplated why the Book of Proverbs is
so important?
Perhaps the answer to this can be
found in the first six verses. Depending upon how you divide it up, we are
given approximately ten reasons why we need this book. We find these reasons in
verses 2-4. We also find the benefits offered to the simple, and to
the young. Then in verse five, we find out how a wise man will handle
these great truths. He will hear, and increase learning.
Are you always finding yourself in
trouble? Do you constantly find yourself in sin without any warning signs? Are
you tired of playing the part of the simple man? Perhaps you need to open your
Bible and dig into the Book of Proverbs.
