Wisdom in Classical and Biblical Tradition begins with the recognition that modern culture emerged from a synthesis of the legacies of ancient Greek civilization and the theological perspectives of Jewish and Christian scriptures. Part of what made this synthesis possible was the importance of wisdom in both sources. Michael Legaspi analyzes accounts of wisdom from foundational texts that range from the Homeric period to the destruction of the Second Temple,and explains why the search for wisdom remains an important but problematic endeavor today.
