The Composition of the Book of Proverbs
ISBN: 9781441155993 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 173 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Who compiled the varied material in the book of Proverbs, and why? Is there any significance in the order in which it has been arranged? These and similar questions about the book have often been discussed in the past, but no agreed conclusions reached.

Wealth and Poverty in the Book of Proverbs
ISBN: 9781441153746 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This is not a sociological study in the technical sense. Its aim is simply to review the internal evidence of a single Old Testament book about attitudes towards what is now universally recognized as one of the most serious problems facing the world today: the unequal distribution of this world's goods. The study shows that there are some fundamental assumptions common to all sections of Proverbs: that wealth, unless acquired by dishonest or unscrupulous means, is a good rather than an evil, and that poverty as a feature of society is an evil which may to some extent be alleviated in...
