Publisher Marketing: So many people read the proverbs as their way to connect with God and His wisdom. These volumes are designed to take you deeper into the meaning and understanding of what Solomon was really trying to tell us. God inspired Solomon, the King of Israel, to record incredibly insightful wisdom on human relations.

There are in this book the secrets of leadership. There are comparisons throughout this book that bring us to our senses before we get lost in a stupid pursuit or perspective. There is in this book the ways to deal with 63 different kinds of fools that will come into your life at various times.
