The Oxford Handbook of Wisdom and the Bible

A high-profile and authoritative volume in which a broad range of leading scholars in the field assess the current "state of the art" in the study of both Wisdom Literature as a category of texts in the Hebrew Bible and as a concept more generally. This particularly timely handbook captures the field at a time in which a plethora of new questions are being asked about Wisdom Literature and spans the gap between that cutting-edge scholarship and standard textbook
expositions.
