I think what some are missing is the simple fact that the books of the Hebrew Bible NEVER claim authorship by anyone! Anywhere! The superscriptions are centuries later.

The Proverbs of Solomon--- indeed- many of the sayings of Solomon are "included" in the book- but do you actually think he sat down and wrote them out? It seems that, at best, what we can say here is that certain sayings are attributed to him.

Best to you - and watch out for the Police in their Lamborghini's!
