You’ll hear us say in this lesson that biblical wisdom represents a holistic, integrated worldview. You’ll discover what that means in this lesson. You’ll also learn something special about women. In a book initially written for young men, we’ll hear two very different female voices that call for them to follow their paths. And we’ll find the book concluding with a rich depiction of the ideal wife.
