A detailed examination of Proverbs 1-9, an early Jewish poetic
work. Stuart Weeks incorporates studies of literature from ancient
Egypt and from the Dead Sea scrolls, but his focus is on the
background and use of certain key images in the text. Proverbs 1-9
belongs to an important class of biblical literature (wisdom
literature), and is less well known as a whole than the related
books of Job and Ecclesiastes, partly because it has been viewed
until recently as a dull and muddled school-book. However, parts of
it have been profoundly influential on the development of both
Judaism and Christianity, and occupy a key role in modern feminist
theology. Weeks demonstrates that those parts belong to a much
broader and more intricate set of ideas than older scholarship
allowed.
