I was recently asked for a reading recommendation to supplement an introductory study of the book of Proverbs. Though I have found commentaries by David Hubbard, Tremper Longman III, Bruce Waltke, and others helpful in dealing with particular aspects of Proverbs, I have had difficulty finding an introduction that provides a helpful structure of the book and a meaty "big picture" introduction. My searches lead me to "Finding Favor in the Sight of God" by Richard P. Belcher Jr. and below I have provided an assessment of this tool. |
