"Wisdom is glorious, and never fadeth away"


Originally written in Greek and traditionally attributed to King Solomon, the Book of Wisdom, also known as the Wisdom of Solomon, is a work included in the Septuagint (the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible) and is part of the Deuterocanonical books in the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox traditions. It is not included in the Jewish or Protestant canons, where it is considered apocryphal.


This work is known for its philosophical and theological reflections. It combines Jewish beliefs with Hellenistic thought on the importance of wisdom as a divine gift, the justice of god and the immortality of the soul.


This new edition comes with an Easy to Read Layout designed to make reading comfortable.
