Practical wisdom, wisdom for living - this is what we have
in Proverbs. The teaching of Proverbs is base on the principle: "The
fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom" (Proverbs 1:7). This does
not mean that God is mentioned frequently. In Proverbs 25 - 27, there is
only one mention of God (Proverbs 25:2). The concern is with life on
earth, our relationships with our fellow human beings. These
relationships are to be lived out from the godly perspective which comes
from "the fear of the Lord."
