| Summary: | Preliminary Material -- Introduction -- 1 Scroll, Text, Arrangement -- 2 Influence of Scripture on 4Q525 -- 3 Genre, Settings, Functions -- 4 4Q525 and Jewish Pedagogy in Hellenistic Judaea -- Conclusions -- Bibliography -- Index of Modern Authors -- Index of Ancient Sources -- Appendix: Reconstructed Scroll. In Turning Proverbs towards Torah , Elisa Uusimäki offers the first monograph on the early Jewish wisdom text 4Q525 from Qumran.

She argues that the author was inspired by Proverbs 1-9 but sought to demonstrate that true wisdom is found in the concept of torah. He also weaved dualistic elements and eschatological ideas into the wisdom frame. The author's intention, Uusimäki argues, is to form the audience spiritually, encouraging it to trust in divine protection and blessings that are bestowed upon the pious |
