The Bible book of Proverbs is a collection of ancient practical wisdom by King Solomon and other ancient Hebrew wise men as well. But it seems to have been assembled in a fairly random order. What would be helpful is a mechanism to sort the wisdom of this book and arrange the thoughts in distinct topics or headings. Then it would be easier to find help for daily issues such as how to handle difficult people, what to do when temptation comes, knowing who to trust, and insights on successful marriage and parenting, advice about credit card debt, correct use of the tongue, cosigning promissory notes, etc.
Proverbs contains truths that apply universally to everyone: warnings, admonitions, standards of conduct and speech, revelation, and promises. Anyone will profit greatly if applying what Proverbs teaches.
As arranged topically in this book, you will be able to quickly find all the Proverbs that deal with almost any subject for life. Many of the verses are listed in more than one category. Hopefully, this document will prove to be a useful and inspiring tool for living. Remember, in the Hebrew mind, to know wisdom is to put instructions into practice. Failing to do what we know to do is foolishness. The aim of the wisdom of Proverbs is to bring truth to light and encourage living that matches it.
