		<description><![CDATA[Because of some major domestic adjustments for our family, I have been impeded from blogging. Nevertheless, it was time for me to return to the blogosphere by completing my series of blog posts on my Old Testament Poetic Books' class.

We will look at descriptive proverbs with this post.]]></description>
