Christ and the Apostles often expressly quoted the Proverbs (⇒ John 7:38; ⇒ Romans 12:20; ⇒ James 4:6) or repeated their teaching; compare ⇒ Luke 10:14, and ⇒ Proverb 25:7; ⇒ 1 Peter 4:8; ⇒ James 5:20 and ⇒ Proverb 10:12. The book has an important place in the Latin and Greek liturgies.

On the basis of titles, subject matter, and poetic structure the Book of Proverbs may be divided as follows:

                                I.           Introduction: The Value of Wisdom (⇒ Proverb 1:1-⇒ 9:18)

                             II.           First Collection of the Proverbs of Solomon (⇒ Proverb 10:1-⇒ 22:16)

                           III.           Sayings of the Wise (⇒ Proverb 22:17-⇒ 24:22)

                          IV.           Other Sayings of the Wise (⇒ Proverb 24:23-34)

                             V.           Second Collection of the Proverbs of Solomon (⇒ Proverb 25:1-⇒ 29:27)

Chapter Int

                          VI.           The Words of Agur (⇒ Proverb 30:1-6)

                        VII.           Numerical Proverbs (⇒ Proverb 30:7-33)

                     VIII.           The Words of Lemuel (⇒ Proverb 31:1-9)

                          IX.           The Ideal Wife (⇒ Proverb 31:10-31)
