Voices of the Sages: Old Testament Wisdom in Dialogue

Voices of the Sages delves into biblical wisdom by exploring Old Testament wisdom texts within the Hebrew Bible's Writings (Ketuvim). Imagine these texts as sages in dialogue, presenting insights, clarifications, and debates on topics like the fear of the Lord and the consequences of good and evil.

In a fresh approach, this book examines how these writings interconnect, creating a dynamic conversation rooted in creation themes from Genesis 1-4: God's creative power, the two paths in the Garden, the folly of sin, and life's fleeting nature outside Eden. This perspective encourages readers to see biblical wisdom as a living dialogue, illuminating the path to understanding God and pursuing wisdom in life's complexities.
