0:00.0 | Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble, and I'm your host for the Bible Recap. |
0:12.9 | Today, Solomon opens by talking to us about how to walk in wisdom to avoid sin. |
0:18.0 | It seems to involve a lot of careful attention and thoughtful planning. It doesn't |
0:22.2 | happen by accident. In chapter 22, he uses a lot of phrases like, the prudence sees danger and hides |
0:29.1 | himself, and guard your soul and apply your heart, and encourages parents to train up their children |
0:35.9 | with wisdom. Verse five specifically says, |
0:39.4 | Thorns and snares are in the way of the crooked. |

1:17.6 | he who is cursed of the Lord, which would, of course, be the person who is not in relationship |
1:23.2 | with God. And again, it's important to remember that these little wisdom nuggets aren't promises or |
1:27.8 | prophecy. This isn't saying God lures people into adultery. This is Solomon's way of reminding people |
1:34.2 | again to steer clear of the things that are adultery adjacent because it's a trap for anyone, |
1:39.2 | but it's especially not suited for people who know and love God. In Chapter 23, Solomon, who was one of the wealthiest men of all time, tells us something |
1:48.7 | only a wealthy man could know by experience. |
