  • SEBTS Adams Lecture - David Allan Hubbard February 7, 1989

    Description:
    David Allan Hubbard was the president of Fuller Theological Seminary in California. Dr. Hubbard is announced as Chapel speaker with a message entitled “Proverbs: Wisdom and Success” (0:00-0:14). A hymn is played (0:15-3:48). Dr. Lewis Drummond welcomes special guests (3:49-4:48). Dr. Drummond offers a word of prayer (4:49-5:44). He provides a brief background of Fuller Theological Seminary and introduces Dr. Hubbard (5:45-10:35). The choir sings a song of worship (10:36-12:41). Dr. Hubbard thanks the Seminary for allowing him to lecture (12:42-13:55). He speaks of oral narration of the Bible and that the key to understand the wisdom works of the Bible and how to apply them pastorally is to hear them aloud (13:56-15:16). Scripture can be misunderstood and thus teachers are needed (15:17-16:28). Dr. Hubbard reveals that he will be speaking on Proverbs, Job, Ecclesiastes, and the Song of Solomon with a focus on the techniques of communication (16:29-18:36). He begins this lecture with saying that Proverbs rises challenging questions and he breaks the book into sections: the collection of Solomon, the collection of 375 two-lined sayings, the words of the wise, more words of the wise, the proverbs of Solomon written by Hezekiah’s men, the words of Agur, the words of Lemuel, and the acrostic of the noble woman (18:37-21:29). Dr. Hubbard explains that there is more connectedness in Proverbs than we think and conveys that to understand Proverbs we must understand their original use (21:30-23:34). Proverbs were originally used within the clans of Israel and later refined for education and in courts as disciplinary guidelines for the elite youth (23:35-31:07). Dr. Hubbard speaks of the wisdom speeches in chapters 1-9 and their purpose of commending wisdom (personified as a woman) and commanding obedience (31:08-32:30). Next, he discusses the two-lined poetry sayings as well as some indicative, comparative, and numerical sayings (32:31-37:10). He refers to the artistic aspect of Proverbs with a discussion of the acrostic in which the writer began each first word of a verse with a Greek letter (37:11-39:30). He mentions that wisdom and folly are synonymous with righteousness and wickedness (39:31-40:50). Proverbs must be preached thematically, in a covenantal context to believers, and as preparation for calls to new discipleships (44:12-46:01). Dr. Hubbard indicates how wisdom literature has shaped our Trinitarian thought by referring to Proverbs 8 which provides a background for understanding the preexistence of Christ (46:02-48:05). He concludes by saying that Proverbs should be applied to others and personally and that we must understand what we read (48:06-49:51). He gives a word of prayer (49:52-50:09). Dr. Drummond thanks Hubbard and gives a prayer (50:10-51:00).
