I would like to gain more understanding & insight in this study. I want to go deeper than just a surface reading of the Proverbs & the meaning behind this book.

Some help in knowing how to read the Proverbs in general. And perhaps some insight into specific Proverbs or parts of the book of Proverbs.

I hope to understand the background of each proverb and how to apply it in our daily lives so that we are wise and to please God.

When I read through Proverbs, sometimes it feels like a generous dose of fantastic sprinkles thrown all over, and I want to know more about the organization of the book.

To learn about the purpose of the Proverbs, the history and context. Why were they included? who was their intended audience?
