The Fear of the Lord is Wisdom | Book Review

Review of The Fear of the Lord is Wisdom: A Theological Introduction to Wisdom in Israel, by Tremper Longman III. *One strong disagreement I failed to mention pertains to the nature of the Eden figure in Ezekiel 28. Longman sees the figure as Adamic, rather than Satanic. I firmly disagree, but again, his style is respectful and invites disagreement. One pleasantly surprising point of agreement, is Longman's absolute denial of any trinitarian proof-text in the "Woman Wisdom" figure.

Longman's inviting style and respect for readers makes the concept of Biblical wisdom fresh and relevant for students of the Bible at any level. The opening chapters on Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Job survey Biblical wisdom as emanating from proper fear of the Lord. Subsequent chapters detail how passages in Psalms, Deuteronomy, and Song of Solomon, as well as the stories of Joseph and Daniel fit within this framework. Later chapters grow more technical, delving further into retribution theology, contemporary wisdom literature, and finally New Testament Applications.
