The Biblical book of Proverbs has fallen into disinterest and disuse, because it addresses issues from 3,000 years ago which may not seem relevant for today. But PROVERBS REVISITED: WISDOM FOR TODAY brings them back to life by exploring their messages and principles, and reapplying them to present-day living. All 628 proverbs and passages are explored in the light of wisdom garnered through Pastor Davis's 50 years of Christian ministry, each containing discussion questions for use in small groups. The book's introduction gives a rich background for the understanding of the Hebrew poetic form in which Proverbs is written. The introduction additionaly contains suggestions for using this work in personal study, small group discussions, private devotions, and instructing children in wise living. The concluding pages offer a complete subject index for topical studies by groups and individuals. Pastors, teachers and public speakers will also find a wealth of helpful illustrations which are used in the 628 studies
