Coles Agur's Wisdom and the Coherence of Proverbs 30 at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Alexander T. Kirk examines a puzzling chapter in Proverbs attributed to an otherwise unknown, enigmatic figure known as Agur. While scholars have long read Proverbs 30 as everything from a devout confession to a cry of despair, few have found any real coherence in the chapter. In this detailed philological study engaging both genre and tone, Kirk demonstrates that the chapter is best read as a coherent collection that mocks pride and greed while it commends humility and contentment. Ultimately, Proverbs 30 deepens the presentation of wisdom in the book of Proverbs by orienting it toward a proper relationship with God.
