Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an interpretation of religious poetry in Hebrew and is the first English translation. Fear of God is the foundation of wisdom and is characterized by physical repose, spiritual peace, and a good name. The author examines religious instruction, based on religious fear, as a stronghold against life's temptations, and in contrast to learning without fear, which is compared to a house built on unstable ground. Fear of God is likened to a tree planted by streams of water, producing fruit for food, while wisdom without fear is described as a shrub springing up in a wilderness that dries up when its supply of water ceases. The author further explores the importance and means of acquiring wisdom, the danger of pride, and the benefits of humility, meekness, and endurance. The book emphasizes the need for contentment and the folly of incessant desire, the merits of industry, and the power of silence and speech in harmony with God's will. It concludes with a discussion of the importance of carefully choosing counselors and keeping secrets, the dignity and dominion that come from serving God, and the folly of excessive pride. This book offers a profound exploration of religious and ethical themes, providing valuable insights and guidance for spiritual growth and personal conduct. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781332291199_0
