See what the Abide Bible has to say about Proverbs:

Proverbs is a valuable collection of wise sayings and a book unlike any other in the Bible. But it is not merely a generous helping of good advice or pithy words. These instructions help us live rightly in light of eternity. When engaged with thoughtfully, they equip us to live fully for God’s glory and purposes.

Wisdom, it may be said, is doing the right thing at the right time for the right people with the right motive. The Book of Proverbs shows us the significant difference between the wisdom of the world and the wisdom of God: People pursuing worldly wisdom do so to get ahead, to be successful, powerful, and wealthy. Those pursuing godly wisdom want to keep God and His ways on the center stage of their lives. This book speaks the kind of wisdom that helps us to embody heavenly truth in earthly contexts.
