Proverbs : 1 : 1

Proverbs chapter 1 gives a clear explanation of the purpose of this book. The author of this book, Solomon's lineage and to whom he is writing are clearly stated. This is a book full of warnings against sin. It is written with the intention that her son should act wisely and prudently.

 The Proverbs Of Solomon Son Of David, King Of Israel:

This verse tells us who wrote Proverbs. Proverbs was written by Solomon, the second son of David and Bathsheba, kings of Israel. Both David and Solomon ruled Israel separately for 40 years.

When Solomon became king of Israel, he sought wisdom and knowledge from the Lord. It brought him wealth, respect, and fame.

Solomon, who excelled in wisdom, failed to use it in his life. Although his son Rehoboam received all the counsel, he failed to use it wisely. He rejected the teachings of his father.

Genesis 8 - bible study

 God remembered Noah and his family and the living things in the ark. God sent a wind and the waters receded. The rains stopped. After 150 days the water had gone down. The ark came to rest on the Mountains of Ararat. The waters continued to recede until the tenth month. There was a window in the ark.  🕊️ After 40 days Noah opened the window and sent out a raven. It kept flying back and forth. Then he sent out a dove. The dove returned as there was water on the surface of the earth. After seven days he sent the dove out. It returned with a fresh olive leaf in its beak. He sent out the dove after seven days and it didnot return. When the earth's surface was dry God asked Noah and his family and all the  living creatures to come out of the ark. Then Noah built an altar and sacrificed clean animals and birds on it. Then God said He would never again curse and destroy the earth as He had done.

Spirit of God - In the beginning & end of bible

 The Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. Genesis 1:2   And the Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" And let him who hears say, "Come!"  Revelation 22:17  The Holy Spirit is a divine Person and is engaged in all the activities and purposes of the Godhead equally with the Father and the Son. The Holy Spirit has also taken a place of intimate association with all those who have been redeemed by the blood of Christ. These two features of the Holy Spirit can be seen on the first page and on the last page of the Bible. On the first page of the Bible we see the Spirit hovering over the waters. The word "hovering" is actually the same word used to describe a mother eagle when she is hovering over her young as they learn to fly (Deuteronomy 32:11).
