Reviews

Zoltán Schwáb unpacks the book of Proverbs with clarity, wit, and insight. He not only eruditely examines the book's historical and literary contexts, but engagingly spotlights modern contexts of feminist, African, and theological interpreters. Keenly aware of complex scholarly debates yet accessible to non-specialists, this introductory textbook is an indispensable classroom resource, and I will strongly recommend it to my colleagues and students.

In this lively and informative guide to Proverbs, Schwab is a deft guide through basic issues to do with the book and he points the reader to further scholarship at every stage. He gives a brief outline of the content of each of the book's chapters and a taste of their character as they form longer sub-units and collections.Throughout he gives us glimpses into his own motivation for studying and teaching Proverbs and his knowledge and enthusiasm comes across on every page of this succinct and readable introductory textbook.

Anyone interested in wisdom literature will treasure this book, as it provides a comprehensive, in-depth, and readable guide to a biblical book that has been under debate for decades. Schwáb masterfully presents his readers with the different scholarly positions on the Book of Proverbs combined with his own distinct perspective. All readers, whether specialists or beginners in the study of biblical wisdom literature, will find much to stimulate their thinking in this book.
