# Proverbs 4 General Notes
|
|
|
|
### Structure and formatting
|
|
|
|
Chapter 4 continues a collection of proverbs that ends in chapter nine.
|
|
|
|
### Special concepts in this chapter
|
|
|
|
#### My Son
|
|
Occasionally, the author addresses a proverb to "my son." This is not intended to restrict the words of that proverb to only males. Instead, it is simply a form used to pass on advice as a father does to his son.
|
|
|
|
#### Wisdom is feminine
|
|
|
|
You may notice that wisdom is referenced using a feminine pronoun. This is a feature that is carried in from the Hebrew language. This may apply well in your language but if it does not, follow the conventions of your language. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/wise]])
