There is a way which seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.
Proverbs 14:12
Solomon was a wise son who paid attention to his father, David. He also sought to be a wise father by sharing his wisdom with his own son and compiling his own set of righteous guidelines and the learned sayings of others, into a compendium. He did this to encourage his own children towards righteous living.
Reverence for the Lord and trust in His Word is the foundation upon which true wisdom is based, and we in the Church age have discovered that: "In Christ are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge."
Wise choices in life are of true and lasting benefit, and the 'Proverbs of Solomon' are an amazing collection of maxims for profitable living. They cover a wide range of subject matter which can help to prevent foolish behaviour and ungodly decisions in areas like relationships, friendships, finances, and a fruitful life. This not only pleases God and demonstrates faith in His Word, but gives every day advice on peaceful living, while avoiding troublesome situations.
