Dr Whybray'S Volume, Like The Others In The Series, Contains The Text In The New English Bible Translation, With Introductory Material Preceding, And A Commentary Directly Following, Each Section Of Text. Dr Whybray Describes The Ancient Near Eastern Tradition Of Producing Collections Of 'Wisdom': Instructions In The Form Of Aphorisms And Proverbs, For The Education Of The Young For A Happy And Successful Career. He Indicates The Dependence Of Proverbs On This Tradition, But Also Points Out How The Israelite Authors Modified It. The Book Contains Three Kinds Of Material: Sections Whose Form And Character Are Hardly Distinguishable From The Instructions Of Egypt And Mesopotamia; Others Where, In Spite Of A More Specifically Israelite Dress, The Aim Remains The Achievement Of A Successful Life; And Finally Passages In Which The Main Purpose Has Now Become The Pursuit Of A Wisdom Conforming Entirely With The 'Fear Of The Lord'.
