About this listen
The Book of Wisdom (also known as the Wisdom of Solomon) is a profound and poetic text that bridges Jewish tradition with Hellenistic philosophy. Traditionally attributed to King Solomon, though likely written by a Jewish scholar in Alexandria, the book speaks with timeless insight on themes such as justice, the immortality of the soul, divine wisdom, and the moral struggle between good and evil. It urges readers to seek wisdom as the guiding force of a virtuous life and explores how divine providence interacts with human freedom. As part of the Deuterocanonical books in the Catholic and Orthodox Christian traditions, the Book of Wisdom continues to inspire reflection on the deeper meaning of life, the nature of God, and the path to righteousness.
