These texts seem to fit the present-day tendencies of interest in self-enhancement literature and of a reluctance to explicitly mention God. Even their presupposition of a given connection between deeds and consequences is far from being outdated. Exegetical insights open up further perspectives on what is involved in the wisdom theology of the Old Testament. Also the discursivity of those texts is discussed and their usefulness for ethical preaching.
