The Book of Wisdom is considered a coherent text characterised by genre syncretism. This article aims to examine the praise of wisdom in the Book of Wisdom for its persuasive functions. The encomium was used in the analysis as a typical genre of epideictic rhetoric. The text of the praise was analysed from the perspective of the features distinguishing this genre and determining its underlying structure. The analysis led to the conclusion that the author used the possibilities of the genre to teach the recipients what wisdom they should seek and to encourage them to take actions to achieve it. The encomium in the Book of Wisdom was subordinated to advisory rhetoric and is an essential element in the work’s structure.

The Book of Wisdom uses a rich biblical Tradition concerning the personified Wisdom and the Spirit of God as a real presence of God among His creatures. Wisdom and Spirit as realities descending from God, and depending on Him, have their own self-existence. The author of the Book of Wisdom identifies Wisdom and Spirit on the cosmical level as the presence of God in the World, and on the anthropological level as the God’s factor acting inside of human being. Based on the previous biblical approaches of these two terms, Pseudo-Solomon concludes that Wisdom and Spirit are both the principium of moral human behavior. He points at the cosmical activity of the both and their renovating presence in human being and in the World.

The following texts: Dan 12, 1-3; 2 Mac 7, 9.14 and Wisd 2, 23 and 3, 4 preach the doctrine about faith in the resurrection of good and bad people alike, and lead up to the truth about universal resurrection. Resurrection it a deed of God Creator and Salvator who gives eternal life to every man as a person. Resurrection to life is an award for present life in tune with God’s law. The resurrection of sinful people leads them to life in eternal humiliation. The Book of Wisdom speaks not only about immortality, e.g. eternal life in an intimate relationship with God, through which it takes on a sense of the reality being truly spiritual and supernatural.
