Intro to Proverbs Part one

Proverbs – Of Solomon
Your most likely are wondering why I am burdening my table to four heavy books. Well if you could see me sitting here you would be wondering. This is the first article Of Solomon the part of the show where I give you some insight into Proverbs. Well here goes the first proverbial session which is an introduction into the book by its own author.
Proverbs Chapter 1 verses 1-6
The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel; To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding; To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment , and equity; To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion. A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels: To understand a proverb, and interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.
Verse one- The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;
This verse, obviously, shows who wrote this book but on the other hand other contributed to it and some of them were and still are everyday sayings. Solomon also spoke 3000 proverbs but not all of the collection is here.
Verse two- To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;
Proverbs are here to help us to give us wisdom and to understand whether what one says is actually true or false. It instructs us in daily life and helps us to see what is right and wrong.
Verse three- To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;

It helps drill these attribute, if you will, into our head for daily use. 
Tomorrow I will finish the second part of the intro to Proverbs.
