The publication of the King James version of the Bible, translated between 1603 and 1611, coincided with an extraordinary flowering of English literature and is universally acknowledged as the greatest influence on English-language literature in history. Now, world-class literary writers introduce the book of the King James Bible in a series of beautifully designed, small-format volumes. The introducers' passionate, provocative, and personal engagements with the spirituality and the language of the text make the Bible come alive as a stunning work of literature and remind us of its overwhelming contemporary relevance.

Sensitive to both literary form and theological content, Derek Kidner introduces Proverbs, Job and Ecclesiastes, explaining their basic character and internal structure. He also summarizes and evaluates the wealth of modern criticism focused on each book. Looking at all three books together, Kidner shows how their many voices compare, contrast and ultimately give a unified view of life.

The editor of this book would advise all prospective buyers to perhaps wait for the second edition of this book now in preparation. If all you are interested in, is the poem by Max Ehrmann, there is no problem, as this is faithfully reproduced. However, the appendix, included for comparative reasons and which reproduces 'Ecclesiastes' from the King James Bible, was not, it appears, the main text that Ehrmann used as the basis for his poem (as indicated, incorrectly, in the introduction). 'Ecclesiastes' has been confused with another text 'Ben Sira[h]' with which it is associated in a somewhat complex manner. The second edition will rectify this error on the author's part (apologies to any purchasers of the first edition).Original description to the first edition: This is a fully revised version of Max Ehrmann's 1934 classic 'Worldly Wisdom'. Ehrmann's famous poem 'Desiderata' has delighted the world for many years and is one of the most popularly searched poems on the internet. Like 'Desiderata' this new book is full of gentle soulful advice on how to lead one's life. A detailed introductory essay, by Tim Dalgleish, investigates Ehrmann's relationships with Theodore Dreiser, Eugene Debs and others, and is full of interesting biographical facts about the author himself, all of which helps us 'revisit' this spiritual classic with fresh eyes

The Wisdom of Ben Sira (Ecclesiasticus) contains the sayings of Ben Sira, arguably the last of Israel's wise men and its first professional scribe, whose world was defined and dominated by Greek ideas and ideals. This Hellenistic worldview challenged the adequacy of the religion passed down to the Palestinian Jews of the second century B.C.E. by their ancestors. Ben Sira's training in both Judaic and Hellenistic literary traditions prepared him to meet this challenge. He vigorously opposed any compromise of Jewish values; and his teachings bolstered the faith and confidence of his people. Through its elegant poetry and vehement exhortations, The Wisdom of Ben Sira exposes the ill effects of sinful behavior on one's health, status, and spiritual and material well-being. Ben Sira's rigorous code of moral behavior was the measure of Jewish faithfulness in an era of ethical and religious bankruptcy.
