The Book of Proverbs records many (but far from all!) of the sayings of King Solomon, plus the words of a few other wise men and women. It includes profound wisdom on living a godly life, on finances, leadership, relationships, and even on farming and war.
Between January 2020 and April 2021 (and later), I recorded eighty-four (and counting) short video teachings on the Proverbs and how they apply to life in modern America. I have also linked almost all of them to one or more of the annual Torah portions. Those links can be found in YouTube playlists and in the topical tags on each video at Rumble, Daily Motion, and YouTube.
These videos are also in a Rumble playlist.
