THEME: LIFE AND WRITINGS OF SOLOMON

INTRODUCTION:

As a logical sequence to the lessons on the life of David, the third quarter will feature a series concerning Solomon and his writings. In addition to lessons on the life of this wise man there will be a greater emphasis on Proverbs and Ecclesiastes. Once again there will be a close relationship between narrative and non-narrative passages.
