In reflecting on the proverbs, there were a number that spoke to me, and I can see how others would speak to other readers. Three in particular grabbed my attention. “Men still blame Eve for everything” Even today, even though women are accomplished in many areas, in some areas men have the dominant voice, and too many men are still trying to blame women when things go wrong. “Be a mountain yourself; or lean on something like it” We are sounding boards for one another, and we seek both to provide advice and assistance to others, as we also accept advice and assistance. “Necessity is inescapable knot” We do what we must do, and suffer what we must, even though it’s not the best for us [we may not think it’s the best or want to it happen].
