Charles Sebold's Sunday School teaching focused on how to read and understand the Book of Proverbs, emphasizing its unique structure as Hebrew poetry marked by various forms of parallelism. Sebold highlighted three main types: synonymous parallelism, antithetic parallelism, and synthetic parallelism. He provided examples from Proverbs 1:7, Proverbs 3:5-6, and Proverbs 9:10 to demonstrate how these patterns communicate wisdom. Additionally, he discussed the use of figurative language and imagery throughout Proverbs, noting its power to convey truths through vivid word pictures. Sebold also explored how Proverbs uses repetition, audience engagement, and thematic development to teach wisdom. The teaching concluded with practical applications of recognizing true wisdom and avoiding folly, as illustrated in Proverbs 30.
