an outline of the ideal virtuous woman
Book • 2026
Proverbs 9 belongs to the first collection of the Book of Proverbs (chapters 1–9), known as didactic discourses that serve as a prologue to the subsequent proverbs.
This chapter poetically depicts personified Wisdom building her house and inviting the simple to partake of her feast for understanding and life, while Folly likewise calls out with deceptive promises leading to death.
It emphasizes the choice between pursuing wisdom, which brings life and fear of the Lord, and folly, which leads to destruction.
