This is part of a year long reading of the Bible chronologically in a harmonized format.

Proverbs 1:1 - 2:22

- The proverbs of Solomon aim to give wisdom, discipline, and insight so people may live righteously and avoid the path of the wicked.

- Wisdom calls out publicly, warning against rejecting her and promising protection, understanding, and deliverance for those who seek her.

Galatians 5:1-26

- Christ has set believers free; they must stand firm and not return to the yoke of slavery under the law, living by faith expressed through love.

- The works of the flesh are contrasted with the fruit of the Spirit; those who belong to Christ crucify the flesh and keep in step with the Spirit.
