      holy hell, proverbs and ecclesiastes are just back to back bangers. i was gonna write about the juxtaposition between the wisdom/loose (or strange) woman at the start of proverbs, or bring up the influence of instruction of amenemope; ecclesiastes spits too, but my fav is proverbs 26, some excerpts:
"Like a dog that returns to its vomit is a fool who reverts to his folly."
rest in the next post, char limit hit lol

      "As a door turns on its hinges,
so does a lazy person in bed."
"The lazy person buries a hand in the dish,
and is too tired to bring it back to the mouth."
"Like a thornbush brandished by the hand
of a drunkard
is a proverb in the mouth of the fool."
"The lazy person is wiser in self-esteem
than seven who can answer discreetly."
"Like and archer who wounds everybody
is one who hires a passing fool or
drunkard."

      finally done with the worst part thus far, chronicles 1 and 2 are unironically just recap episodes, mostly for 2 samuel and onwards, which is just the past 3 chapters. myb you could say it's like an alt history account, but idk man the differences are not that great tbh
