2. The Virtuous Man
God provides a picture of the virtuous woman in
Proverbs 31:10-31.
There is no Proverbs 32, but there’s a description
of a virtuous man in Proverbs 1-30.
Three ways this advice should be viewed:
 Men, this is what we must be like.
 Women, this is the kind of man you want in your
life.
 Parents and grandparents, train up your sons and
grandsons to be this way.

3. The Virtuous Man
The virtuous man and his God.
 Husband is the head of the family (Eph. 5:23;
6:1-4).
 God is the ultimate head (I Corinthians 11:3).
You must first get your relationship with God in
line.
 Prov. 1:7; 3:5-6, 11-12; 15:16; 28:13.
The virtuous man and wisdom.
 Follow after wisdom (Prov. 1:20-33).

4. The Virtuous Man
The virtuous man and family.
 How a wise man behaves in his family (Prov.
24:27; 5:15-20; 22:6; 19:13).
The virtuous man and his work and money.
 The husband is the primary provider (I Tim.
5:8).
