“Almost always, the more intelligent, clever, and original you are, the more bored you are by Proverbs. It tells you nothing you didn’t know before. It is a book of platitudes, of old, well-worn truisms. It is, simply, dull. Yes, that is how the most “advanced” minds see Proverbs. And our nation, our civilization, and our world are today threatened with destruction precisely because of the ideas of those “advanced” minds, because we have departed from the old platitudes. If there is anything our civilization needs in order to survive the threat of moral and spiritual and perhaps physical destruction, it is to return to these “safe”, “dull” platitudes. For they are true. They are a road map to life, and we are lost in the woods.” BibleBook Of ProverbsBchristianity Book:You Can Understand The Bible: A Practical And Illuminating Guide To Each Book In The Bible Source: You Can Understand The Bible: A Practical And Illuminating Guide To Each Book In The Bible
