Die Weisheit Salomos cover

The "Wisdom of Salomo", or Sapientia Salomonisin Latin, is one of the most linguistically sophisticated books of the Greek Old Testament. It covers timeless theological and philosophical questions. Thus, its great age - 2000 years - is hardly noticeable, and Martin Luther's praise of the text as "containing much good, and well worth reading" is still valid today.The first part presents justice as a guideline especially for the powerful. They are called on the love justice and seek God. They need to learn wisdom, as the second part states. The third and longest part of the text describes how wisdom came to the rescue of Adam, Joseph, Mose, and many others.The present volume provides an introduction and a new translation which does not require previous theological knowledge.
