Note 13 — Chapter II · The Proverbs of the Jews
Reading edition
Evidence for the statements here given is omitted, partly because they are matters of general agreement among modern students of the Bible, but still more because the full evidence has been repeatedly set forth in works accessible to any who may have inclination to consider the subject in detail. Reference may conveniently be made to C. H. Toy, Proverbs, or to the same writer’s article Book of Proverbs, in the Encyclopædia Britannica (11th edition); or to G. F. Moore, Literature of the Old Testament, ch. xxii. (Home University Library).
