A Thematic Approach to Proverbs

My wife and I have employed the Proverbial Intake System for about four years running. Over this time we've become quite familiar with the book and the message it portrays.

One of our new goals is to decipher a theme for each chapter and institute that theme during the day.


This isn't as easy as we thought. Many of the chapters have multiple themes. Some appear just to be random thoughts reading like the chart below.


Randomness
Still others send a clear message. One chapter in particular, 20, devotes 9 different verses to honesty in our business dealings. We'll discuss this in detail and others over the next few weeks.

Until then, off to Houston for our son's high school graduation.

God Bless.
