The book of Sirach praises the study of the law, the wisdom of the
men of old and their prophecies. Its author is well-read and
rearticulates traditional Jewish wisdom for his generation,
centering it on fear of the Lord, and clearly asserting that wisdom
is a gift from God. He encourages his audience to remain steadfast
in following the law of Moses rather than following the ways of the
dominant pagan Greek culture.
