literature of tho bble which wc find chiefly in jprovers ecclesiastcs and jamea in these writings we become ac quainted with the wise sayings of some of tho hebrew sages and teachers who faced the problem of their umc and endeavoured by instruction to direct tho living of men they taught largely by use ot concise pithy statements or proverbs these werc cosily de ilverod easily retained and easily understood thg wisdom which they imparted was derived from experience and observation and was usually presented with a ubl itarian jbka making reference to the benefit of doing good and the disadvantage of doing evil bless ings art upon the head of the just but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked prov 10 6 such practical wisdom no doubt had its effect upon individuals and their social implications it is to be re membered however that for the hebrews these sayings were more than good advice they were godcentred and had that religious basis which is necessary for sound moral teachings and true reforms the key verse of the lesson he that walketh uprightly walketh surely prov 10 9 is a fine example of the concise type of wisdom and teaching which could be easily remembered and trans mitted orally in fitting clrcumstan the biblical basis proverbs 10 1 0 ecclcsiastos 2 l3 from the wealth of wisdom literature available in our bible two passages have been chosen as the basis for the lesson in the short weighty sentence of the first of these prov 10 10 we have set before us the blessing and curse of good and evil respectively any one of the nine verses can be read apart from the other eight and still retain its full message this passage is illustrative of the div ersity of the ulsdom teachings in your reading of this brief portion of scripture you will find selfex planatory and contrasting referen ces made to the wise and foolish son wickedness and righteousness sloth and diligence the just and unjust man and the wise and fool ish response to law md authority the book of ecclcsmsus from which our second passage is taken might well be described as the re- flection of a man whose mind was in conflict over the problems of life it reveals his vain search foi i satisfaction and happiness in 1 the acquiition of wisdom 2 tht pa tl- 1 cipation to excess in worldly plea sures 3 the amassing of great mat erial possessions verses 1 3 of the second chapter 4h us some thing of his attempt to find con tentment in mirth and of his con elusion of the vanity of worldly pleasure the application there is indeed a great wealth of wisdom literature in our chris tian heritage not only in the scriptures but also in many other literary works the pity of it is that wc do not know them better the lesson todoy ought to create within us a desire to go further afield in this tudy and to ascer tain the great truths of life gamed from observation and experience by those of other days that they are applicable odoy there in no doubt after all the fundamental problems of life are very much the same in very generation there is this to remember how ever that we may store our minds with knowledge and still fail t have wisdom we might be able to quote proverbs and maxims for every occasion from our vast knowledge gleaned from study bu if we do not possess tho wis dom to apply ihcm in our living then we are indeed miserable and unfortunate creatures let us search our christian hcrl tage then for thojc wke sayings centred in god which will guide us in our conduct industry prud ence character and obedience let us know them in our minds and hearts and apply them whi n the occasion demands helpful quotations the fear of the lord is the be ginning of wisdom the bible speaks to every mood to which man is prone we can read poetry and recito poetry but to live poetry is tho symphony of life four thingi come not back tlufc spoken word tho sped arrow time pant tho neglected opportunity none hut god can satisfy the longing of tlir
