Oh, man, this book is a literary masterpiece. Even though it is from the apocrypha, it is used throughout the New Testament! You could easily compare Sir 2:1 with 1Pet 4:12; Sir 5:11-12 with James 1:19; 7:14b with Matt 6:7. I mean, after Enoch and the Wisdom of Solomon, this is perhaps the most quoted apocryphal book in the the New Testament. It's such a shame that "Orthodox Christianity" actively seeks to cover this up, because it is absolutely a masterpiece of wisdom literature!
Thank you for these
