Every book should have a purpose. This book is designed so the reader can use it for daily devotion and Bible study. Each day has a theme and you can follow along by day reading your Bible. My suggestion is to read one proverb every day. I have keyed on certain verses. Because this is the third volume, the verses will be further along in each chapter. I would suggest purchasing the other two volumes. I hope that the forth volume will be completed by the end of 2014. Read the chapter each day in your Bible Read and study the notes of the verses in this book each day Pray before reading and after reading and meditating on the thoughts I have written. Expand your study by reading other materials on the book of Proverbs. I would also suggest you write notes either in the book or in Bible to refer back too. God Bless you as you study and read these materials David N. Smeltz
