I am not a fan of the NIV, but I am a fan of this commentary series. And this particular commentary on Proverbs, by Paul Koptack is delightful! I think he gets the right feel for Proverbs, as it sits within the canonical and covenantal stream. I highly recommend it. Big volume, but worth the money and the time.

Insightful
Like all the Application Commentary series, provides useful insight into the text from language and cultural context. Especially helpful are the observations into literary structure such as plays on Hebrew words, use of words in other Proverbs and texts, palindrome and acrostic.

It must be difficult to write a commentary on Proverbs, since there are so many different directions you could provide commentary on, but this author does as good a job as one can do
