An excellent compendium of comments made by early Christians regarding or involving Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Song of Solomon.

Comments are provided from various individuals from the 2nd century through the early 8th century from commentaries, sermons, exhortations, and other texts. The introduction sets forth the purpose of the project and the nature of the comments from the early Christians-- how they viewed the text and used it in their work. There are helpful indices and description of the various authors cited at the end of the book.

This book is quite beneficial for understanding this aspect of the history of interpretation of these three books along with the early Christian understanding of them. If you ever wondered how the early Christians interpreted the Song as a description of Christ and the church, you can see how they stretched the images through the comments collected in this book.

This book is of great value in deep study of Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and/or the Song of Solomon.
