Book Description
The Bible is simply a love letter compiled into sixty-six books and written over a period ofsixteen hundred years by more than forty authors living on three continents. Although theauthors came from different backgrounds, there is one message, one theme, one thread that runs throughout the entire Bible from the first book, Genesis, to the last book, Revelation. That message is God's redeeming love for mankind--a message that is as relevant for us today as it was two thousand years ago.The Poetical Books reveal the heart of the nation of Israel and are considered some ofthe finest literature ever written. It is as if the authors' very hearts have been openedup for all to see. Pain is not minimized, nor is man's struggle to understand God downplayed. Questions of suffering are boldly asked, worship is gloriously displayed, wisdom is held in highest esteem, married sexual love is unashamedly portrayed, and philosophy is openly debated.Hebrew poetry is not structured around the rhyme or meter we are used to reading andhearing. Instead, ideas are often stated in one line and then reinforced in the secondline, or a second line is composed to add to or complete the thoughts of the first. Inother forms, the second line of poetry contrasts the first.Job and Song of Solomon were written as dramatic poems that tell a story. Most ofthe psalms were written to be accompanied by an instrument and are thus examples oflyric poetry--rich in its language of worship and praise. Proverbs and Ecclesiastes areexamples of didactic poetry, giving instructions or lessons about life in short conciseverses.

Book Description
Our world is always looking for good advice. Whether its about how to succeed in love, in business, or in life itself, we want to know. From check-out lines to TV psychologists to the internet, self-help is and always will be hot. This is natural. Life is hard. Finding good advice is harder. We wade through fad after fad, column after column, psychologist after psychologist. Still we come up empty. You hold in your hand a way of wisdom that is very, very old. Long before TV, psychologists or the internet, Gods Word spoke to the deepest longings of our heart. God showed us how to succeed in life. The Way of Wisdom has nothing to do with fads or theories. There is nothing "pop" about it. Instead, God shows us through it who we are, what life is about, and how we can live it well. These four works from the Bible Job, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and the Song of Solomon offer us better advice than any other source could ever hope to. Job shows us what a human being is and where our comfort comes from. Proverbs teaches us how to succeed, whatever our path may be. Ecclesiastes teaches us what lasts and what doesnt. The Song of Solomon shows us what true love is all about. Translated afresh from the Latin Old Testament, The Way of Wisdom offers us the Rock, the Word of God, on which we can build our lives. May God bless your life as you read His Word.
