The title of T E Lawrence (of Arabia)'s autobiography, 'Seven Pillars of Wisdom' is taken from a verse in the Book of Proverbs.
In this episode, we also meet 'Love covers a multitude of sins' and the finger wagging evangelicals' favourite, 'the wages of sin is death'.
The Book of Proverbs is not only a treasure trove of wisdom, its beautiful poetic language has also endured.
