Wisdom Literature, Psalms, and Poetry

We are covering three types of texts today (Psalms, wisdom texts, and love poetry). Pick two of those categories and read the biblical and ANE material belonging to it (assigned Psalms with ANE Psalms; assigned Proverbs with ANE wisdom texts; Song of Songs with ANE love poetry). Psalms (13; 104); Proverbs (1-4; 6; 22:17-24:22); Song of Songs/Solomon; Course Handout-Selections from ANE Proverbs and Hymns; Course Handout-Selections from ANE Love Poetry

Reflection Questions: within the categories you picked, identify some passages with copied or really close material and compare them (are they exactly the same, do they differ in any ways that help us think about how its being adapted, etc.). Same thing we have been doing with this type of comparative material.
