    This was a delight to watch. Today will be a more refined and wise day for me, and in my interaction with others - in part because of this few minutes and verses covered. 🙏

    I see all of Proverbs is Wisdom, and I have never heard of this book. I believe I may add it to my Summer list of items I am scheduled to read. My main reads will be The Fire Bible commentary by Donald Stamps, and The Ignatius Catholic Study Bible NT commentaries. I also just rebound a nice Oxford version of the Apocrypha I need to get back to. I do love to read....just wish some of it would soak in. take care

    Sounds like an interesting book, and I'm always looking for shorter books I can read. I hadn't heard of it or the author.
