The Bible’s greatest value is its doctrinal and prophetic message: the Old Testament’s foretelling of a coming Messiah, and the New Testament’s fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy – the literal coming of Christ, the Son of God, and what bearing His life’s work has upon the human race. We must not overlook the Bible’s peculiar doctrinal stance in world history … and we should “thank the Jews” for that “Book of books,” which is the Bible. But where does the Bible stand in literary terms? Surely we must not overlook the Bible’s peculiar literary stance in world history. The Bible, with its prophetic imagery, poetic praises, and parabolic analogy is one of the world’s greatest literary works. Perhaps none of its writings show this more than does the Psalms, Proverbs, and parables. —From the Introduction With an insightful introduction on the literary gems of the Psalms, Proverbs and parables, this compilation is a fine contribution to any religious or inspirational library, sure to inspire a more careful and serious reading of one of the world’s greatest texts—the Holy Bible.

This 10-week study of Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and the Song of Solomon mines the Wisdom Literature not only for wise principles for living, but also for the wise person these books point to through their drama, poetry, proverb, and song. In her accessible and authentic style, Nancy Guthrie focuses on seeing Jesus in the Old Testament instead of emphasizing works-based moralism. She presents clear commentary and contemporary application of gospel truths, speaking directly to issues such as repentance, submission, happiness, and sexuality. Each weekly lesson includes questions for personal study, a contemporary teaching chapter that emphasizes how the passage fits into the bigger story of redemptive history, a brief section on how the passage uniquely points to what is yet to come at the consummation of Christ's kingdom, and a leader's guide for group discussion.
