The Moral Vision of Proverbs A Virtue-Oriented Approach to Wisdom Timothy J. Sandoval This major statement on Proverbs by a Christian scholar provides a critical, virtue-ethics approach to a text laden with interpretive challenges for modern readers. “Sandoval presents Proverbs as a profoundly theological statement about the cultivation of moral character through the practice of the complex moral and intellectual activity that the sages call ‘wisdom.’ This study will be essential for serious students of biblical wisdom traditions.” —ELLEN F. DAVIS, Duke Divinity School “The book of Proverbs finally receives its full ethical due from the able hands of Sandoval, who offers the most robust and nuanced moral treatment to date of this often-overlooked book.” —WILLIAM P. BROWN, Columbia Theological Seminary
Timothy J. Sandoval (PhD, Emory University) is professor of religion at Texas Christian University.
