Proverbs

Introduction

David wrote many psalms, words of praise and devotion. David's times were full of trouble and turmoil. David was constantly under attack of one kind or another. When we are under pressure we have to rely on what we already know because learning doctrine while under pressure is much more difficult then learning it while under an atmosphere of rest.

David learned while at rest out in the pasture with the sheep.

Now we have Solomon whose reign was prosperous and relatively peaceful. David had put all the enemies in their place and had earned their respect and fear giving Solomon a reign of peace. Solomon concentrates on the words of instruction.

The name David, means daring, beloved, loved.

The name Solomon, means peace or peaceful.

The subject of the book of Proverbs is, instruction.

Therefore this book begins with the subject of instruction, which leads to peace in ones life, because we are loved by God, who is King over all that is.

Christ’s victory on the Cross established Hs title, King of kings. That victory put aside the conflict of the angelic conflict, and opened up an era of peace. Peace in the sense that we now have the complete canon of scripture and have the longest dispensation within which to learn Bible doctrine to the fullest. We have the first opportunity to learn the full realm of Gods word and plan.
