Proverbs: “Common Sense” or Culture Clash?

The Book of Proverbs, a compilation of wisdom sayings found in the Old Testament, will be the topic for the Wednesday Bible Study which follows Mass and dinner. Proverbs are part of a long tradition of wise or pithy sayings which may reflect a particular situation but more often address human life in a more general way. Many of the sayings in Proverbs are easily recognized, often quoted, and seem to be good “common sense.” They are applicable to a variety of situations and are as relevant today as they have been for many centuries. Other proverbs, however, are more obviously reflective of a different time and culture.

All adults are welcome.
