| | The Wisdom of Solomon |
| | It is thy will that the things made by thy wisdom should not lie idle; and therefore men trust their lives even to the frailest spar, and passing through the billows on a mere raft come 6 safe to land. | | | Thou didst choose me to be king of thy own people, and 8 judge over thy sons and daughters; thou didst tell me to build a temple on thy sacred mountain and an altar in the city which is thy dwelling-place, 9 a copy of the sacred tabernacle prepared by thee from the beginning. | | | To you then who have absolute power I speak, in hope that you may learn wisdom and not 10 go astray; those who in holiness have kept a holy course, will be accounted holy, and those who have learnt that lesson will be able to make their 11 defence. |

| | Book of Wisdom, Wisdom of Solomon |
| | Wisdom or Wisdom of Solomon, is a book of the Old Testament in those versions of the Bible following the Greek Septuagint (generally Roman Catholic and Orthodox versions). | | | Wisdom, a defense of the Jewish way of life, is one of the books of the Apocrypha; in the Septuagint and Vulgate it is included in the Old Testament. | | | The book is ascribed to King Solomon and stands in the same intellectual tradition as such earlier collections of proverbial wisdom as Proverbs and the Book of Sirach - hence its full title, the Wisdom of Solomon. |

| | Wisdom is pure emanation of God: this is part of the growing tendency to identify wisdom as divine. | | | V.v10-11 says their origin was evil.This seems to mean the people being led here,for the notion of original sin is not clear in any spot in the OT, though the account of the fall shows Adam lost grace/favor,and so did not pass it on to his descendants. | | | But now in the Wisdom of Solomon there is no more groping; everything is right out in the open. |

| | In one of Silvanus’ hymns we have an explicit allusion to Wisdom 7.25-26:”For he (the Logos) is a light from the power of God, and he is an emanation of the pure glory of the Almighty, and he is the spotless mirror of the activity of God, and he is the image of his goodness. | | | Wisdom emphasizes the king’s lowly and mortal nature while identifying all the philosophic ideals of Greek thought with the teachings of Judaism. | | | Despite the context of the passage, which speaks of the destruction of the first-born Egyptians at the time of the Exodus, the words were interpreted as referring to the Incarnation of the eternal Word of God, Jesus Christ. |

| | These descriptions of wisdom, especially the crucial passage in 7:22-8:21, reflect the increasing emphasis on the transcendence of God characteristic of later Judaism, combined with an unmistakable influence from Hellenism. | | | Practically all scholars, even in conservative circles, agree that the book should not be attributed to Solomon, while a linguistic examination of the work also rules out with a reasonable margin of certainty that its original language might have been Hebrew or Aramaic. | | | First, the afterlife is described in terms of the Hellenistic dualism which debases matter in contrast to the immortality of the soul, rather than the Judaic concept of the resurrection of the body (cf. |
