Day 30 – The Purpose of Proverbs

 The main purpose of Proverbs is to teach people wisdom and discipline, to help them understand the insights of the wise, and to give the insight to help people do what is right, just, and fair while assisting them to live disciplined and successful lives. [Translated from Proverbs 1:2-4 NLT]

The Purpose of Proverbs

1These are the proverbs of Solomon, David’s son, king of Israel. 2Their purpose is to teach people wisdom and discipline, to help them understand the insights of the wise. 3Their purpose is to teach people to live disciplined and successful lives, to help them do what is right, just, and fair. 4These proverbs will give insight to the simple, knowledge, and discernment to the young. 5Let the wise listen to these proverbs and become even wiser. Let those with understanding receive guidance 6by exploring the meaning in these proverbs and parables, the words of the wise, and their riddles. 7Fear of the LORD is the foundation of true knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

“When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul;” Proverbs 2:10

Proverbs 2:10-22 – “If we are truly wise, we shall be careful to avoid all evil company and evil practices. When wisdom has dominion over us, then it not only fills the head, but enters into the heart, and will preserve, both against corruptions within and temptations without. The ways of sin are ways of darkness, uncomfortable and unsafe: what fools are those who leave the plain, pleasant, light some paths of uprightness, to walk in such ways!”… Complete Passage of  Proverbs 2:10-22 @ http://biblehub.com/commentaries/mhc/proverbs/2.htm
