From chapter 10 to chapter 25 of the Book of Proverbs there are no connected discourses, but only individual maxims of Solomon, loosely strung together, the sense of each being complete in one or two verses. Any division in this entire section is more or less arbitrary, although it may be said that the parallelism of members in Chapter s 10 to 15 is generally antithetic and in Chapter s 16 to 22 synthetic, and there are certain other characteristics and relations of thought which show the transition from one idea to another.
