Notes: Other than a few passages, I've never read much of this book of the Bible, so I'm interested in learning more.
Mini review: This is almost entirely a listing of wise sayings, a form called "wisdom literature" throughout the ancient world and common to many cultures. This one obviously focuses upon wisdom as handed down in early Judaism and is repetitive in several places, but actually there are words here to live by. Modern Christians should pay attention here.
