highlights from Solomon | hit the refresh

I received some positive feedback from the Proverbs and Ecclesiastes series I compiled this year. Here are the articles from Proverbs. I hope you’ll find in them some refreshing reflections on Solomon’s wisdom.

sin drains one’s life blood | Solomon’s wisdom

At best, Solomon is referring to shedding the blood of animals in idolatry. At worst, he is referring to the murder of humans made in the imago Dei. Either way, the habitual sinner digresses to a point in his mindset where he no longer values life blood.

Proverbs 1.10-19

wisdom’s public call in the city | Solomon’s wisdom, pt. 2

The voice of wisdom is not only clear, but available for all. She is available everywhere we turn in the city, “public places” or “the streets”

Proverbs 1.20-33

on profit, single homes & sanctuary | Solomon’s wisdom, pt. 3

I’m highlighting posts from the week on LinkedIn, particularly a post about my brother’s unique work with single women and moms. However, I think you’ll find the content from Solomon to be evergreen.

Proverbs 14.23; 15.6, 31

the wise sister vs. the seductress | Solomon’s wisdom, pt. 4

Solomon basically says look to wisdom in the same way you seek the counsel of a wise sister, wife, or female relative. She nurtures you and loves you with Godly discernment, so the wise sister is able to speak into your situation with uncanny insight.

Proverbs 3.1; 7.1-27

imbibing, favored kings, & Solomon’s wisdom, pt. 5

In order not to be misleading, this piece is not about kings with drinking problems. Rather, it is pulled from a couple readings in Proverbs, each one shared with brief remarks.

Proverbs 20.1; 21.1

bribes & coming to terms w/ related terms | Solomon’s wisdom, pt. 6

Wycliffe Bible Translators say one who refuses a bribe: “boweth away from evil by the dread of the Lord.” Again, this is abstaining from bribes.
