Summary
In the history of wisdom literature, few traditions match the solace and profundity found in the teachings of the Bible. For centuries, people have taken comfort and insight from the familiar yet eternally resonant writings of the Bible's wisdom literature. Through their inspirational teachings, the sages of the biblical wisdom tradition offer time-honored advice about some of life's most difficult questions. And yet, few of us realize that these great teachings are part of a larger tradition - a rich and complex body of writings that have influenced theologians, philosophers, and everyday men and women for millennia. In 36 thought-provoking lectures, award-winning professor Father Joseph Koterski takes you deep inside this tradition, exploring enlightening teachings that have inspired the world and that continue to speak to life's most important questions. It's a rare opportunity to study an important but often overlooked tradition of wisdom teaching. And there's no better guide than Father Koterski. Intellectually incisive yet engaging and accessible, he offers both the expertise of a philosophy and theology scholar and the insights of an ordained priest who has experienced the power of these teachings in everyday life. Join Father Koterski for this journey and delve deeply into profound teachings that have shaped the faith of millions for centuries and still apply to our lives today. All Lectures: 1.
