Proverbs Chapter 9 paints a picture of a feast at Lady wisdom’s house. This event involves preparation, invitation, and conversation. Having covered the first two, in our sermon today we address the third. Our text presents a sample of conversation at Lady Wisdom’s table.  What are topics of consideration, issues of concern, and life lessons we hear when we eavesdrop, or better yet, sit down for a meal at her house? Verses 7-12 tell us. Structural Note: As chapter 9 closes, so does the first major section of Proverbs.  These passages are compiled under the heading of Solomon as son of David & king of Israel (1:1) and as such feature themes of generational legacy & equipping. We might call chapters 1-9 “The ‘My Son’ Oracles’.  Chapters 10-24 follow with a collection of primarily single sentence wisdom sayings or ‘aphorisms’ under the title: “The Proverbs of Solomon”. Hezekiah’s scribes publish additional proverbs of Solomon in chapters 25-29 the wise sayings of this section are not quite as terse as the 2nd section.  The book closes with installments written by 2 other students of wisdom (Agur & king Lemuel) proverbs (30-31).  These authors contribute extended applications of that communicable attribute of God equipping the student of wisdom with skills for the art of Godly living.
