TylerA little more #introduction
When I say I’m interested in constructions of disability in the book of Proverbs, I mean I am fascinated by the way the authors and compilers of that text employ language of disability (impairments of sight, mobility impairments, hearing, cognitive, etc) in contrast to their presentation of the ideal “חכם” wiseman. Does proverbs envision disabled people in its ideal world of wisdom? That’s the question that I’m pursuing.
