    About this ebook

    The Book of Proverbs is the key book in the Bible that teaches us wisdom; "the single, most important thing in life we could ever achieve". If we not only read the book, but put the advice to work in our lives, we can truly become wise.


    Frank realized that most people have a difficult time interpretting the Bible and never get the full understanding of what the passages are trying to get across to us. "If we don't fully understand what we are reading, how can we apply the advice to our lives?", was his question.


    With this in mind, he took three different Bible interpretations of the Book of Proverbs, studied each passage and rewrote them in "plain English", without changing the meanings of the passages, so all could get the full understanding.


    In this book you will find the simplest format, easiest wording, a daily calendar guide, word index and explanations for hard to understand passages. You will have such ease reading and actually comprehending what you are reading, that you will be amazed the simplicity to interpret.


    Although the Book of Proverbs was written nearly 3,000 years ago, you will find how relevant these words of wisdom are in our lives today.


    Prov 1:2--"The purpose of these Proverbs is to teach wisdom, give instruction and perceive words of understanding."

    Frank LaRosa

    Frank LaRosa has had the passion for writing for many years.  In his struggles to understand the scriptures of the Bible he decided there has to be an easier way to write the passages so that anyone could understand them.  As a member of a local Christian church, he didn't want to only depend on the Sunday sermons to get any understanding from the Bible and therefore began to research and write a book, in plain English, that would not only help him, but also many others.  Born and raised in the suburbs of New Orleans in a family of high Christian beliefs, his faith in God has taken him through many struggles.  As a professional entertainer, he now uses his God-given talents to entertain and bring joy to the elderly in the retirement communities.  He believes that everyone wants to know God but struggle with hard to understand writings in the Bible and therefore, get frustrated in their quest. Frank is one of seven children, and has spent several months researching and writing, in simple format, with the hope that many will be able to get the best understanding and learn wisdom from this remake of the Bible's "Book of Proverbs".
